He also gave details on the CPV’s 12th national congress, underscoring Vietnam’s commitment to progressing toward industrialisation and global integration.
The delegation introduced the Spanish version of a book on the 12th congress to participants. They also organised a photo exhibition about Vietnamese seas and islands where the conference took place.
More than 800 delegates, including 320 foreigners from 41 countries worldwide, attended the conference.
During their stay in Mexico, Vietnamese delegates met with PT National Coordinator Alberto Anaya Gutierrez, during which a cooperation pact between the two parties was signed.
Under the pact, the PT committed to helping the CPV expand ties with other parties and movements in Latin America while the CPV will work to connect the PT with political parties and movements in Asia. The PT will continue assisting Vietnam in the training of Spanish.
