Quan doi nhan dan positioned Russia within a security-defense and friendship-diplomacy frame, emphasizing a legacy of strategic cooperation, military discipline, and symbolic strength. Its formal, standardized language reflected its role as an instrument of political communication and foreign policy. In contrast, Dan tri employed a human-interest and emotional frame, constructing an image of Russia as an approachable and friendly nation, thereby fostering public sympathy and cultural connection. The comparative analysis demonstrates that the portrayal of a strategic partner is not monolithic but is diversified according to the target audience and institutional logic of each media outlet. This complementary framing strategy serves to reinforce positive perceptions of Russia at both the official and public levels in Vietnam. The main limitation of this study is its limited sample size; future research could benefit from a larger corpus and a more longitudinal design to trace the evolution of media images. Despite this, the study offers a valuable snapshot into the mechanisms of international image-building within a non-Western media context, highlighting the need for further nuanced analysis of media framing in Global South countries.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p>Рассматривается медийное конструирование образа России во вьетнамской прессе во время празднования 80-летия Национального дня Социалистической Республики Вьетнам, крупного политического и общественного события 2025 г. Основное внимание уделяется освещению участия иностранных гостей, в том числе российской делегации, в официальных церемониях. Используя теорию фрейминга и дискурс-анализ, изучено 26 статей двух газет новостных агентств: газеты Quan doi nhan dan («Народная армия») и интернет-газеты Dan tri. Результаты показывают, что Quan doi nhan dan преимущественно представляла Россию в контексте безопасности и обороны, дружбы и дипломатии, используя официальный тон, подчеркивающий солидарность и историю традиционного сотрудничества. В отличие от этого, Dan tri изображала Россию через призму человеческих интересов, эмоций и социокультурных факторов, уделяя особое внимание дружескому и открытому взаимодействию между российской делегацией и вьетнамской общественностью. В статье делается вывод о том, что вьетнамские СМИ играют важную роль в укреплении дружбы между Вьетнамом и Россией, формируя позитивное общественное восприятие ключевого партнера. Новизна данного исследования заключается в сравнительном подходе к фрейм-анализу в недостаточно изученном вьетнамском медиапространстве, раскрывающем как различная медийная повестка формирует образ стратегического партнера.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>Russia’s image</kwd><kwd>Russian Federation</kwd><kwd>national image</kwd><kwd>vietnamese press</kwd><kwd>vietnamese media</kwd><kwd>framing analysis</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>имидж России</kwd><kwd>Российская Федерация</kwd><kwd>национальный имидж</kwd><kwd>вьетнамская пресса</kwd><kwd>вьетнамские СМИ</kwd><kwd>фрейм-анализ</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group/></article-meta><fn-group/></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><mixed-citation>Anholt, S.
