The delegation reaffirmed Viet Nam’s consistent foreign policy of independence, self-reliance, peace, friendship, cooperation and development.

On the occasion of the Progressive Party of Working People of Cyprus (AKEL)’s 100th founding anniversary, the Vietnamese Ambassador presented a congratulatory letter from Tran Cam Tu, Politburo member and Standing Member of the CPV Central Committee’s Secretariat, to AKEL General Secretary Stefanos Stefanou.

The letter affirmed that the CPV always attaches importance to its traditional friendship, solidarity and cooperation with the AKEL, and hopes to further step up exchanges, share experience and enhance coordination, thereby contributing to cooperation between Viet Nam and Cyprus, as well as solidarity between their peoples.
