Buenos Aires (VNA) – Communist parties across Latin America have affirmed the global significance of Vietnam’s April 30, 1975 victory that led to the liberation of the South and national reunification.

The Communist Party of Argentina shared an image on social media featuring Vietnam's iconic red flag with yellow star alongside two smiling elderly individuals, captioned "50 years since Vietnam's great victory” on the occasion of Vietnam’s celebration of the 50th anniversary of the liberation of the South and national reunification. The party stressed that five decades after Vietnam's triumph over US imperialism, the heroic Vietnamese example remains a beacon for nations worldwide struggling for independence.

Meanwhile, the Communist Party of Uruguay posted images across its social media platforms with the caption "50 years of Vietnam's victory" alongside President Ho Chi Minh's famous words "Nothing is more precious than independence and freedom." Their message highlighted the victory was the result of the Vietnamese people's solidarity and heroism and marked a historic defeat for US imperialism.

The Uruguayan communists further noted that half a century after this historic event, Vietnam has achieved remarkable progress and established itself as a regional leader, maintaining international solidarity, especially with Latin America and Uruguay. The Vietnamese people's courage continues to inspire the world.
