While Mr. Oliveras was the Cuban Ambassador to Vietnam from 1966 to 1969, he was also the Head of the Cuban military delegation in Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia and later experienced leadership in various fields. The former diplomat published many books, mainly on history, such as: “Ho Chi Minh the patriot, 60 years of revolutionary struggle”.

On the same day, the Vietnamese Embassy delegation led by Ambassador Nguyen Trung Thanh attended the funeral of  Mr. Julio Oliveras – a good friend of the Vietnamese people and an erudite scholar about Vietnam.
