Lao anniversary reflects on Vietnamese volunteers’ contributions

On October 30 in Vientiane, the Lao Ministry of Defense held a gathering to honour the contributions of Vietnamese volunteer soldiers and experts in Laos, recognising their dedication to the revolutionary causes of both Parties and nations, and to the independence and freedom of the Vietnamese and Lao peoples.

The event celebrated the 75th Anniversary of the Traditional Day of Vietnamese Volunteer Soldiers and Experts in Laos (October 30).

Lao officers and soldiers reflected on the strong bond between the two Parties, nations, and armies in their struggle for independence and freedom.

Through this event, young Lao officers and soldiers are urged to understand the deep bond and special combat alliance between Vietnam and Laos.

This shared history should guide their thoughts and actions as both nations remain united in protecting peace, national sovereignty, and territorial integrity now and in the future./.
