This is the US embassy in UK, the second most expensive one after the one in Ha Noi...it look like a fortress instead of a friendly design like the one in Ha Noi 
US embassy: America shows off its Thames fortress
High-security building includes the first new moat in England for 150 years

The 12-floor US embassy in London has triple-glazed and blast-proof glass walls, raised terraces and sunken trenches
STEFAN ROUSSEAU/PA
For a state-of-the-art fortress, the new US embassy in London features one security measure that is distinctly old-fashioned — the first moat to be built in England since the 19th century.
Costing a billion dollars, the 12-floor cube in Nine Elms, which was shown off for the first time yesterday, is the most expensive embassy yet built.
SPONSORED
It boasts some of the most high-tech defences in the world, including triple-glazed and blast-proof glass walls, raised terraces and sunken trenches instead of a wire fence, and a Faraday cage — a mesh of conductive material to prevent electronic eavesdropping.

CIA was deceived by VN spies during VN war and we all knew US finally were defeated in VN in 1975 .
Nothing special abt CIA, they r just a loser in VN.
that was when Vietnam and the US were at war
this CIA facility would be aimed at China

Thats true, just like I already explained.
New US embassy mainly is the symbol for a better economic tie between VN and US. US don't wanna keep buying products from CN when CN keep dreaming that they will become No 1 soon. US wanna buy those stuff from other nations and VN is the best choice for setting up new manufacturing Hub.
Its all abt economic matter, not much thing abt politic or military conflict when build this new embassy.

China reducing its armed forces by hundreds of thousands.
China investing heavily in Missile arsenal.
China investing heavily in Destroyers, support ships and Aircraft carriers.
China investing heavily in Airforce. building 100+ (J-16, J-10, J-11, J-20, FC-31 etc).
China even heavily investing in Communication and surveillance using sattelite system, quantum computers etc..
all these doesn't show preparedness of "Human wave attack". All these are modern military solutions set to win a modern warfare.
If you say so. and i hope you are right. i was just wondering because even with such old relation and completely aligned economies you still see US's UK embassy of this size.
The US is going to try and fight China to the last vietnamese... they have absolutely no affection for a country whom they literally killed around 10% ~ of its entire civilian population......
If you think being a US pawn is going to get you anywhere longterm, then vietnams going to be in for a nasty surprise.... and its really sad... one of the greatest anti-imperialist countries on earth, that i have enormous respect for....
is slowly giving away their hard won independence to that same enemy they kicked out... in the name of containing a different enemy (china) . China is your very large neighbour. its not going anywhere. you need to learn to live with China...
the US is a nothing artificial 200 year old country. that goes around causing mass destruction on anything it touches, before going away and retreating back home in humiliation.... to put your eggs in the american basket long term is a deadly recipe.. ho chi minh must be rolling in his grave. south vietnam might as well have won the war...the geopolitical outcome would have apparently been the same... just vietnam would be a weak banana republic 100% dependent on the US

U are bias, when CN bow down and begged help from US, u said Nothing, but when US wanna have better relationships wt VN, then u start talking nonsense.
Why don't u accuse CN for being US's pawn since 1979 when US used CN as the cannon fodder to destroy Soviet to the last Cnese ??
During VN war, US had much more warships, carriers than CN now, and they still lost,.
In the last VN-CN conflictin 2014 , CN lost and had to retreat shamelessly, their weapons are useless

That's strange.
According to your understanding Vietnam controls East Vietnam Sea, therefore, it should have one of the largest economies on Earth. So how has China managed to have a nearly 47 times larger economy than that of Vietnam without needing to control East Vietnam Sea?
China Nominal GDP: $16.6 trillion
Vietnam Nominal GDP: $355 billion
List of countries by GDP (nominal) - Wikipedia
Don't you think you're putting too much emphasis on the magical East Vietnam Sea?
