The special envoy of Party General
Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong has emphasised Vietnam’s consistent and top
priority policy to enhance solidarity, friendship and comprehensive
cooperation with Cuba.
Special envoy Hoang Binh Quan, who is also

Head of the CPVCC Commission for External Relations, made the statement
at the talks with Politburo member and Vice President of the Council of
State of Cuba Esteban Lazo Hernandez in Havana on Feb. 24.
Quan
provided Cuban leaders with detailed results of the 11th National CPV
Congress, the core content of documents adopted at the congress as well
as Vietnam’s experiences and important achievements in the socialist
construction and national defence over the 25 years of renewal, 20 years
of implementing the Party Platform in 1991, 10 years of implementing
the 2001-2010 socio-economic development strategy and five years of
implementing the 10th National Party Congress Resolution.
He also
briefed the hosts on orientations and targets to make Vietnam basically
become a modern-oriented industrialised country, a prosperous people, a
strong nation and a democratic, just and civilised society to firmly
advance toward socialism by 2020.
The special envoy expressed his
delight at the achievements recorded by the Cuban people under the
leadership of the Communist Party of Cuba (CPC) led by Fidel Castro and
Raul Castro in construction and defence of their socialist country.
He said he believed that the upcoming 6th Cuban Party Congress will be a success.
E.
L. Hernandez expressed his thanks to Party General Secretary Trong for
sending his special envoy to promptly inform Cuban Party leaders of the
results of the 11th National CPV Congress which, he said, reflects the
trust between the two Parties.
Despite hostile forces’ recent
sabotage, the relationship between the two Parties and States has been
constantly consolidated and developed in depth and width, he stressed.
He
affirmed that the Cuban Party, State and people will join the
Vietnamese Party, State and people in bringing further sustainable
development to the two countries’ relationship for the two peoples’
interest and for peace and stability in the world.
