The profound bond between Vietnam and Cuba is rooted in a deep brotherhood, exemplified by Cuban leader Fidel Castro’s famous words: "For Vietnam, Cuba is willing to shed its own blood!"
"General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong was a true friend of the Cuban Revolution and its leaders, and a prominent figure on the global stage. He fostered a strong relationship with General Raúl Castro and played a vital role in strengthening the unique ties between Vietnam and Cuba. His legacy has left a lasting imprint on the hearts of the Cuban people."
The Cuban people’s admiration and respect for him are rooted not only in diplomatic ties but also in his achievements in advancing communism and socialism in Vietnam.
For communists worldwide and countries that hold communism as a core ideology, Comrade Nguyen Phu Trong and his writings serve as invaluable references.
"To us, General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong was a brilliant example of socialist and communist theory. He was not only a scholar but a statesman, and his accomplishments are evident in Vietnam’s progress. While Vietnam has lost a great leader, we are confident that his ideology will continue to inspire generations to come."
On July 22, Cuba held a state funeral for General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong. Throughout the mourning period, public buildings and military institutions across the country flew flags at half-mast, and all public entertainment was suspended./.
