About 3,000 foreign journalists have registered to cover the summit. 

Earlier, Le Thi Thu Hang, the Foreign Ministry's Spokeswoman, said the upcoming DPRK-USA Summit is a good chance for Vietnam to promote its foreign policy and show its wish to join hands in building peace in the region and the world.

The spokeswoman believed that during their stay in Hanoi, international reporters will experience the hospitality and friendliness of local people. The event is expected to open up chances for Vietnam to step up its international integration.
