At the exhibition area, Dr Martin Pros, former Czech Deputy Minister of Finance, said that the country always appreciates support from Vietnam when COVID-19 broke out.

According to the Vietnamese Embassy, photos at the exhibition will also be placed on display in other localities of the host country during cultural events of the Vietnamese community there, in an attempt to promote images of Vietnam and strengthen the two nations’ friendship.

The Vietnamese community was recognised as the 14th ethnic minority group in the Czech Republic in July 2013.
