Addressing the launching ceremony in Hà Nội, VNA Deputy General Director Lê Quốc Minh emphasised 2020 was the year that Việt Nam and Russia celebrate the 70th anniversary of establishing diplomatic relations.
The Russian version of VietnamPlus was launched to enhance the traditional relationship between the two countries, Minh said.

It will offer timely and accurate information about domestic affairs, the Party policies and guidelines, State laws and Việt Nam’s stance on regional and global issues, apart from images of Vietnamese culture, history and people, contributing to rejecting wrongful and distorted allegations on the Vietnamese situation.

Information on the Russian version of VietnamPlus will be well received by Russian readers as well as Vietnamese who know Russian languague and Russian-speaking community in Việt Nam, the ambassador said.
