For her part, the Vietnamese minister congratulated the Cuban people on achievements under the leadership of the Communist Party of Cuba over the recent times, expressing her delight at the enhancement and expansion of the special and traditional cooperation and friendship between Vietnam and Cuba in general, and between the two ministries in particular.
She affirmed that the Vietnamese ministry will do its utmost to support and share experiences with its Cuban counterpart, and briefed her host on coordination between the two ministries and relevant Vietnamese agencies to implement a technical assistance project for the Cuban ministry to enhance its capacity for law building and legal enforcement.
The officials valued the active coordination between the two ministries in effectively implementing the 2024-2025 Cooperation Program through flexible methods. They inked a memorandum of understanding (MoU) on cooperation between the Judicial Academy of Vietnam and a specialized school of the Cuban ministry.
They said the MoU serves as an important legal basis for performing specific cooperative activities in training legal staff and the training of officials holding judicial positions between the two institutions.
Martínez suggested that based on the document, the Judicial Academy of Vietnam and the Cuban school should research and coordinate in organizing short-term training programs, including those for Cuban lawyers.
While there, Oanh had a working session with Chairman of the Constitutional and Legal Affairs Committee of the Cuban National Assembly José Luis Toledo Santander, during which the host appreciated Vietnam's support for Cuba in the process of drafting its 2019 Constitution, and in amending and perfecting Cuba's legal system.
The Vietnamese delegation visited the Faculty of Law of the University of Havana, the specialized school of the Cuban Ministry of Justice, the association of Cuban law firms, and the Fidel Castro Ruz center; and laid a wreath at the Ho Chi Minh Monument in Havana.
