Ambassador Ngo Minh Nguyet reaffirmed the great significance of the 1975 Spring Victory in the Vietnamese people's resistance against the U.S.
She also spotlighted the country’s remarkable socio-economic achievements under the leadership of the CPV during nearly four decades of Doi moi (Renewal). These strides have elevated Vietnam into the ranks of the world’s 40 largest economies and brought considerable improvements in defense - security policies and living standards.
The diplomat stressed that these accomplishments, widely acknowledged by the international community, have positioned Vietnam to confidently step into a new era. With aspirations for peace, prosperity, democracy, and development, the country continues its steady path toward socialism.
For his part, Ruben Dario Guzzetti, coordinator of the Vietnam research group at the CEFMA, underscored the significance of the Vietnamese people's struggle under the CPV's leadership in defeating colonialism and imperialism in 1975 and reunifying the country. He also praised Vietnam’s current level of development and growing international stature.
Meanwhile, head of the PCA Central Committee's information department Hernan Randi recalled how the Vietnamese people's struggle inspired the Argentine youth during the 1970s.
He honored the legacy of President Ho Chi Minh and General Vo Nguyen Giap, as well as the solidarity extended by the Argentine people in support of Vietnam, underscoring the CPV's guiding role throughout the nation's historic journey.
