Russia–Vietnam relations ((ロシア語:Российско-вьетнамские отношения), (ベトナム語:Các mối quan hệ Nga-Việt)) date back formally to 30 January 1950, when the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics established an embassy to North Vietnam. Russia is a principal ally of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam, and the only non-Orthodox ally. ==History== The USSR was traditionally one of Vietnam's strongest allies. After the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991, friendly relations were established between Vietnam and the Russian Federation, the USSR's main successor state. Nearly 5% of the official count of the Vietnamese population in Russia is composed of students with Russian government scholarships. In January 2001, to commemorate the 50th anniversary of Soviet-Vietnam ties, Russian president Vladimir Putin made an official visit to Hanoi, where he was received by Vietnamese president Trần Đức Lương.〔 Bilateral trade amounted to $550 million in 2001; Russian exports to Vietnam included machinery and steel, while Vietnam sold textiles and rice. The two countries also maintained relations in the energy sector, with joint venture Vietsovpetro pumping crude oil from the Bạch Hổ oil field. After the Vietnam War ended in 1975, the Soviet Union became Vietnam's main benefactor during the 1980s until the USSR collapsed in 1991, leaving Vietnam with a weakened ideological, economic and military ally. In rhetoric, Vietnam officially remains one of the world's last socialist countriesthe communist hammer-and-sickle flag can still be seenbut it has embraced a market economy along with Asian and Western investment over the past two decades. Sergey Lavrov, Foreign Minister of Russia, visited Vietnam in July 2009. "Relations between the two countries have developed positively," Lavrov said. "We are convinced that the bilateral cooperation will be at the highest level."〔(Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation, S.
