At the talks, Thuong informed the Cuban official about Vietnam’s achievements in the COVID-19 fight and socio-economic development, as well as the country’s efforts in implementing the Resolution adopted at the 13th National Party Congress, especially in Party building and rectification, and the combat against corruption and other negative phenomena.
