At the ceremony, Ambassador Le Viet Duyen highlighted milestones in President Ho Chi Minh's revolutionary career and his great contributions to the glorious revolutionary cause of the Vietnamese Party and people.

President Ho Chi Minh devoted his whole life to the country’s struggle for Vietnam’s revolution for national liberation and contributed to struggles of nations worldwide for peace, independence, democracy and social progress, he emphasized.

Representatives from Venezuela’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Venezuela-Vietnam Friendship Association expressed their admiration for President Ho Chi Minh who led the Vietnamese revolution to achieve great victories.

Previously, an exhibition featuring documents and photos on President Ho Chi Minh’s life and career and Vietnam’s land and people was organised at Rómulo Gallegos University as part of activities under a project to honour the hero of national liberation and great man of culture of Vietnam.

The ambassador proposed to have a working session with the university to connect with the Ho Chi Minh National Academy of Politics of Vietnam to strengthen research cooperation activities on Ho Chi Minh Thought in the coming time.

On the same day, the Vietnamese Embassies in many countries such as Mexico, Algeria, Germany, and Chile held ceremonies to offer flowers and incense to President Ho Chi Minh./.
