During their stay, the Vietnamese delegation had meetings with Rogelio Polanco Fuentes, Secretary of the PCC Central Committee, head of its Ideological Department; Ángel Arzuaga Reyes, permanent deputy head of the Committee’s Department for External Relations; and Enrique Ubieta Gómez, Editor-in-Chief of Socialist Cuba magazine. They also had working sessions with leaders of the Ñico Lopéz Party higher school, Granma daily - the mouthpiece of the Communist Party of Cuba, and the April publishing house.

At the meetings, the two sides exchanged views on issues of mutual interest, and agreed to promote the traditional and long-term cooperation between press and publishing agencies, thus contributing to strengthening the friendship and cooperation between the two parties and two countries.

The Cuban side proposed increasing the exchange of delegations at all levels; opening training courses for reporters and editors.

For his part, Vu Trong Lam affirmed that the CPV always attaches importance to ideological work, especially in the current era of social media. He added that Vietnam is willing to support Cuba to strengthen the ideological front.
