Havana, Aug 24.- The legacy of the leaders Fidel Castro Ruz and Ho Chi Min and their contributions to the brotherly relations between Cuba and Vietnam was recalled the day before, in this capital, during a seminar with representatives of both countries.
Nguyen Trong Nghia, member of the Secretariat of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Vietnam and president of its Propaganda and Education Commission, highlighted the thought and actions of the Cuban leader.
After touring the Fidel Castro Ruz Center and listening to the presentations, he affirmed that there are points of similarity between the two personalities and their revolutionary thoughts.
They fought for human dignity, national liberation, against colonialism and led the people of their own country and humanity against oppression, he said.
Rogelio Polanco Fuentes, member of the Secretariat of the Central Committee and head of the Ideological Department of the Communist Party of Cuba, expressed the pride that the brotherly relationship represents, based on the thought of Fidel and Ho Chi Minh.
He reiterated the gratitude of the Cuban Party, State and people to the Vietnamese Government, its Party and State in the face of the economic, commercial and financial blockade imposed by the United States.
He pointed out that as part of the visit of Nguyen Trong Nghia and the delegation accompanying him, a cooperation agreement was signed on Tuesday to strengthen ties in the ideological sphere, which began to be implemented today with the seminar.
On this day, Alfonso Noya Martínez, president of the Institute of Information and Social Communication, held a meeting with the Vietnamese political leader, in which the ties of friendship that unite both governments and peoples were highlighted.
The party leader's stay in Cuba comes a few days after commemorating the 50th anniversary of the first visit of Commander in Chief Fidel Castro to the liberated areas of southern Vietnam, a fact that went down in history as a demonstration of the close ties between the two countries.
