At the presentation ceremony, Cuba’s Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs Anayansi Rodriguez Camejo emphasized the progress made in bilateral ties across all fields in recent years.
The highlights, she said, include the visit to Cuba by Party General Secretary and State President Nguyen Phu Trong in May 2018 and the visit to Vietnam by Cuban President Miguel Diaz Bermudez the following November.
She praised Vietnam’s engagement in Cuba’s strategic growth programs, particularly those on ensuring national food security, as well as its consistent support for Cuba’s fight against the US embargo.
She lauded Thanh’s contribution to boosting relations over the last three years.
