The association’s portal was launched in February, promptly proving information and updates on significant events and foreign activities of Vietnam and Russia.
The Vietnam-Russia Friendship Association’s activities have also enhanced people-to-people exchanges, contributing to the Vietnam-Russia traditional friendship.
In the coming time, the association is set to arrange visits of Russian delegations to Vietnam while stepping up communication work.
On the occasion, the association presented awards to 38 winners of a writing contest on memories in Russia and the Vietnam-Russia friendship, which was held to celebrate 100 years of the Russian October Revolution.
