Tổng Bí thư Nguyễn Phú Trọng tiếp Thượng tướng Phạm Trường Long tại Hà Nội hôm 18/06/2017

New York Times  ngày 21/6/2016 có đưa tin về vụ thượng tướng Phạm Trường Long, Phó Chủ tịch Quân uỷ Trung ương Trung Quốc bỏ ngang cuộc Giao lưu hữu nghị Quốc phòng biên giới Việt – Trung lần thứ 4 và về nước. Bộ QP TQ nói đó là vì “lý do liên quan đến việc sắp xếp làm việc”.  Nguồn tin từ phía Việt Nam (nặc danh) là hai bên cãi nhau trong cuộc họp kín về “những vùng tranh chấp về chủ quyền” ở Biển Đông.

Tướng Phạm thăm VN chính thức 2 ngày 18 và 19 tháng 6, 2017. Theo lịch đã sắp, thì ngày 20 đến 22/6 sẽ dùng cho Giao lưu hữu nghị Quốc phòng. Báo VN chẳng nói gì về chuyện tướng Phạm bỏ về. Một số báo Việt có tường thuật tướng Phạm gặp các lãnh đạo VN trong ngày 18/6. Nhưng tướng Phạm bỏ về cuối ngày 18, sau đó các bài báo đều được gỡ bỏ.

Phân tích thỏa thuận ExxonMobil và PetroVietnam

~ Trần Đình Hoành ~ 2 bình luận

Chuyện ExxonMobil có lẽ không quá mới như nhiều người tưởng.

Trước hết tóm tắt hai thỏa thuận ký ngày 13/1/2017:

https://cvdvn.net/2017/06/20/thayer-background-briefing-vietnam-exxon-mobil-sign-agreements-to-develop-vietnams-largest-gas-project/

ExxonMobil và PetroVietnam Exploration Production Company ký 2 hợp đồng để khai thác dự án Cá Voi Xanh (Blue Whate) – một “head of agreement” cho khung dự án (project framework) và một “head of agreement” về giá hơi gas.

Head of agreement thì chưa phải là hợp đồng mà chỉ là một số điểm tổng quát để khai triển hợp đồng sau này.  Head of agreement do đó chưa có giá trị pháp lý của một hợp đồng.  Tuy vậy, thường nó cũng cho biết là hai bên đã rất nghiêm chỉnh làm việc với nhau.  Ở đây ta sẽ dùng chữ “thỏa thuận” cho hai heads of agreement này.

US energy giant Exxon Mobil and state-owned PetroVietnam agreed this month to develop Vietnam’s largest natural gas-fired power generation project, a US$10 billion joint venture known as ‘Blue Whale’ (Ca Voi Xanh). The deal, signed while outgoing US Secretary of State John Kerry was on his last official visit to Vietnam, threatens to create new ripples in the contested South China Sea under the new Donald Trump administration.

Can’t Imagine Tillerson Being in Putin’s Pocket: Nye

President-elect Donald Trump’s pick for top U.S. diplomat comes with Chinese geopolitical entanglements. In his favor is years of dealing with some of the country’s biggest oil companies.

As chief executive officer of Exxon Mobil Corp. since 2006, Rex Tillerson has seen his company snared in territorial disputes in the South China Sea. An exploration venture with Vietnam has brought it into the cross hairs of China, one of the countries claiming the disputed waters.
