In his remarks, General Secretary, President Lam expressed his honour to receive the noblest accolade of the Cuban Party and State, showing his sincere and profound gratitude to the Cuban Party, State, and people for their sentiment and recognition.
He said the presentation of the Order to him is a vivid demonstration of the importance the Cuban Party, State, and people attach to the special friendship and solidarity between the two countries which have been nurtured by preceding leaders such as Jose Marti, Ho Chi Minh, and Fidel Castro, generations of subsequent leaders, along with people of both countries; and stood the test of time.
The Vietnamese leader affirmed that he always keeps in mind and appreciates the strong support and wholehearted assistance that the Cuban Party, State, and people have given to Vietnam during the struggle for national independence in the past and the national construction and safeguarding at present.
He noted with satisfaction that over the past years, the traditional solidarity and special friendship have continued to be reinforced. The two Parties and countries have also expanded and deepened comprehensive cooperation on their paths of socialist-oriented national construction and safeguarding.
General Secretary, President Lam once again affirmed the Vietnamese Party, State, and people’s consistent stance of staying united with and supporting the heroic Cuban people’s just struggle, and demanding the US administration implement the United Nations resolutions on the immediate and unconditional end to its embargo, sanctions, as well as other hostile policies and actions against Cuba.
He voiced his belief that the Cuban people, under the PCC’s leadership, will definitely surmount every challenge, firmly protect their revolutionary achievements, and reap even greater victories in their revolutionary cause for the goal of building prosperous and sustainable socialism.
