Abstract

After leaving the European Union (EU), the United Kingdom (UK) needs to re-assert its status as a traditional power on the international stage. To prepare for development in the post-Brexit period, the UK has had many orientations to promote and develop its influence and interests in the world. Since 2016, the three main orientations have been their relationship with the EU, Asia - Pacific, and Africa. Among its partners in Asia, the UK has been making efforts to come up with solutions to strengthen its ties with ASEAN. This article studies some key features of the position of ASEAN in the UK’s foreign strategy and efforts to strengthen the UK - ASEAN relations thereby making some comments on the prospect of the relationship between the UK and Vietnam.
