At the talks, Minister of Public Security To Lam said the Party, State and people of Vietnam in general, and his ministry in particular always treasure and keep in mind the solidarity and wholehearted support, both materially and spiritually, Cuba has granted to Vietnam during the Southeast Asian nation’s past struggle for national liberation as well as the present cause of national construction and defence.
He lauded Cuba’s successes in COVID-19 vaccine research and production towards becoming one of the first countries in the world to administer home-grown vaccines to its entire population.
Cuban Minister of Interior Lazaro Alberto Álvarez Casas spoke highly cooperation between the two ministries over the past time, stressing that his ministry always makes all-out efforts to maintain and develop the solidarity and friendship between the two countries.
The Cuban side also stands ready to enhance and expand collaboration with the Vietnamese ministry in all fields, especially in safeguarding national defence, and social order and safety, for the sake of the two countries’ people, and regional and global peace and stability.
On this occasion, Lam handed over 100 tonnes of rice to the Cuban ministry to share difficulties facing the Latin American country.
