He said, “The strength, greatness and perseverance of the Vietnamese originate primarily from their solidarity and support of world peoples... International solidarity is tremendously meaningful to us. It’s true that we must rely on ourselves first. Fortunately, we have the physical and mental support of other countries. So now, our strength comes from both inside and outside.”
President Ho Chi Minh used part of his Testament to write about world communist movements.
He wrote, “I wish our Party will strive to contribute to restoring, in a reasonable and human manner, solidarity among brotherly parties on the basis of Marxism-Leninism and the international proletariat. I strongly believe that our brotherly parties and countries will definitely be united.”
