Ambassador Rogelio Polanco Fuentes said that the State visit of First Secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Cuba and President of the Republic of Cuba Miguel Díaz-Canel Bermúdez to the Socialist Republic of Vietnam will take place from August 31 to September 2.

During the visit, President Miguel Díaz-Canel Bermúdez will have talks with top Vietnamese leaders and participate in many important activities to strengthen the special and historic friendship and cooperation between the two countries.

President Miguel Díaz-Canel Bermúdez will also attend the celebration of the 65th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between Cuba and Vietnam and visit businesses with links to Cuba.

This is the first time a high-ranking Cuban leader has visited the brotherly country of Vietnam in his capacity as First Secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Cuba and President.

Ambassador Rogelio Polanco Fuentes emphasized that the visit of First Secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Cuba and President of the Republic of Cuba Miguel Díaz-Canel Bermúdez took place in the context of relations between the two countries being at their best.

Relations between the two Parties, between senior leaders and politically have been constantly strengthened and developed strongly. At the same time, economic, trade, cooperation and investment relations have also entered a new phase - more comprehensive, more substantial, more effective and more sustainable.

Meanwhile, the Vietnamese people actively participated in the campaign to support Cuba, through the initiative launched by the Vietnam Red Cross Society, which received enthusiastic and emotional response from all the people.

We consider the visit of the First Secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Cuba and President of the Republic of Cuba, Miguel Díaz-Canel Bermúdez, to be of great significance. The visit will contribute to further consolidating and elevating the special and close relationship between Cuba and Vietnam to a new and more effective stage of development.

Notably, the visit took place at a time when the relationship between the two countries is at a good stage in all aspects, during the Vietnam - Cuba Friendship Year and on the occasion of the 65th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between the two countries - Ambassador Rogelio Polanco Fuentes shared.
