The labour agencies of Vietnam and Cuba will strengthen their relationship following the visit of Secretary General of the Confederation of Cuban Workers (CTC) Ulises de Nascimiento to Vietnam.

At his working session with Cuban officials on March 31, Chairman of the Vietnam General Confederation of Labour (VGCL) Dang Ngoc Tung said Secretary General Nascimiento’s visit was a demonstration of the unity and friendship between the two agencies and countries.

While congratulating Nascimiento on the success of the 20th Congress of the CTC, Tung expressed his belief that the two sides will continue to coordinate and build the strong relationship between the two countries’ workers and unions.

Expressing his delight at the enthusiastic reception from the VGCL, Secretary General Nascimiento thanked the VGCL’s assistance to the CTC in recent years and hoped the visit would enhance the relationship between the two agencies and the diplomatic relations between the two nations.
