President Cuong stressed that Vietnam always treasures and remembers the support of Chinese advisors who shared hardships with the Vietnamese people during wartime. He also highlighted the sacrifices by Vietnamese soldiers who fought in the Chinese Red Army, citing the example of Nguyen Son, a “dual-nation general” who contributed to the liberation of both countries.
He noted that the Vietnam - China relationship, nurtured by President Ho Chi Minh, Chairman Mao Zedong, and generations of leaders and people from both countries, has grown soundly over the years. Today, based on the framework of the comprehensive strategic cooperative partnership, the ties have been elevated to a China - Vietnam community with a shared future that carries strategic significance.
The President noted that Vietnam has always educated younger generations to understand, respect, and preserve the good relationship between the two countries. He underlined the important role of the Vietnamese community living, working, and studying in China, as well as the relatives of Chinese and Vietnamese revolutionary figures, in strengthening bilateral bonds.
Presenting gifts to them, the leader expressed his wish that these families remain in good health and continue to uphold the revolutionary traditions of their forebears, thereby contributing to the stable, sustainable, and effective development of Vietnam - China relations in the time to come.
