HÀ NỘI — President of the Việt Nam Fatherland Front (VFF) Central Committee Trần Thanh Mẫn extended Easter greetings to Christian dignitaries, priests, nuns, and followers nationwide on Monday.

He lauded their active participation in social welfare activities in the building of new-style rural areas and environmental protection and climate change response, which had contributed to boosting economic development and ensuring security and social order.

Easter this year takes place as the world and Việt Nam were making every effort to fight the COVID-19 pandemic, Mẫn said, appreciating the efforts of Christians to work with others around the country in this fight.

He expressed his hope that they would continue promoting their tradition of patriotism, join movements launched by the VFF Central Committee, and contribute to fulfilling the country’s socio-economic development targets for 2020. — VNS
