Havana (VNA) - The e-newspaper of Cuba’s Latin American News Agency Prensa Latina has launched a special column entitled “The 14th National Congress of the Communist Party of Vietnam” to disseminate official information about this important polical event to international readers.

The section features articles and photos about all events of the Congress, affirming that the Communist Party of Vietnam (CPV) is leading the Vietnamese nation into a new era of peace, independence, democracy, prosperity, civilisation and happiness.

Talking to the Vietnam News Agency correspondents in Havana, Prensa Latina President Jorge Legañoa Alonso emphasised that the special section represents Prensa Latina’s commitment, within the framework of cooperation with the Vietnam News Agency, to publicise the 14th National Congress of the CPV to international friends, particularly in the Latin American.

According to the President of Prensa Latina, the column serves as a small example, through the media, of the achievements in cooperation between the two countries when they share common political will, despite geographical distance and language difference. Through this section, readers can find news and images documenting the political agenda of the 14th National Congress.

The Congress holds historical significance, marking a turning point in the country’s development process and a moment to define goals and orientations for national development in the new era amid a complex international context./.
