Following the welcome ceremony, the top leaders of Vietnam and Cuba held talks.

Vietnam and Cuba established their diplomatic relations on December 2, 1960. During Vietnam's resistance war against the U.S. imperialists, Cuba emerged as a symbol of international solidarity, taking the lead in the global movement supporting Vietnam's struggle for independence and providing invaluable assistance.

Despite being separated by half the globe, the Vietnam-Cuba relationship has become a model for international relations. From the foundations laid by Cuban national hero José Martí, President Ho Chi Minh, and Cuban leader Fidel Castro, successive generations of leaders and citizens of both countries have nurtured a bond forged through history’s ups and downs.

Over the past 65 years, bilateral cooperation has expanded across all levels, channels, and sectors, structured around three main pillars of political-diplomatic relations as the foundation, economic-trade-investment cooperation as the driving force, and people-to-people exchanges as the binding element.
