Dr Phạm Thị Thanh Mai, Deputy Director of the Hồ Chí Minh Museum in Huế, said: “President Hồ Chí Minh was a close friend of the Communist Party and the people of China. During his journey to seek national salvation, he spent a significant time in China. Across the country, there are indelible marks that reflect his unwavering struggle for the revolutionary cause and the shared victories of the people of Việt Nam and China. This forged a tradition of friendship and close cooperation between our two nations.
