Brussels (VNA) – An exhibition on President Ho Chi Minh’s revolutionary career has taken place in Brussels, Belgium, giving peace lovers insights into the life of the late leader, who has been recognised by UNESCO as a Hero of National Liberation and a Great Man of Culture of Vietnam.

Talking to the Vietnam News Agency's correspondents in Belgium on the occasion, Bert De Belder, Head of the Department of International Relations of the Workers' Party of Belgium (PTB), stressed that Vietnamese people underwent a struggle of great hardship for national independence against very strong enemies, but ultimately won thanks to Ho Chi Minh’s talent and leadership.

He said the late president was a great inspiration and played an important role in connecting the struggle of the Vietnamese people with that of the peoples in the third world, as well as in other countries worldwide.

Ho Chi Minh is a genuine internationalist, who made the cause of liberation and happiness of peoples around the world the focus and international solidarity an important value, he said.

He was a talented leader but still a very modest person leading a simple life, noted Bert De Belder.
