In their congratulatory letter, Cuba’s General Raúl Castro Ruz and First Secretary of the Communist Party of Cuba Central Committee and President Miguel Díaz-Canel Bermúdez expressed their belief that under the sound leadership of Party General Secretary and President To Lam, the CPV will continue to lead the Vietnamese people to carry forward the glorious victories in the struggle for national independence as well as the cause of national development, and promote the reform process, for wealthy people, a strong country, democracy, and a fair and civilised society.
They stressed their wish and commitment to further deepen the good relations and fraternity between the two Parties cultivated by Cuban leader Fidel Castro Ruz and President Ho Chi Minh.
In his message of congratulations, General Secretary of the Workers' Party of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) Kim Jong Un wished the CPV and the Vietnamese people, under Lam’s leadership, will reap greater achievements in socialism building.
Extending his congratulations, Japanese Prime Minister Kishida Fumio highlighted the close ties between Vietnam and Japan across spheres, from politics and diplomacy, to economy, national defence and security, culture and people-to-people exchange, and noted his belief that Lam, a great, important friend of Japan, will help deepen the bilateral relations. The PM said he hopes to work together with the Vietnamese leader to elevate the Vietnam-Japan relationship to a new height in the time ahead.
Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko, another well-wisher, expressed his belief that with his experience, reputation and qualities, Lam will outstandingly fulfill all tasks.
Belarus wants to promote its ties with Vietnam on the basis of their traditional friendship, and mutual trust and understanding, he said, noting his hope for continued coordination in implementing agreements the two countries have reached, and outlining cooperation orientations in the time to come.
Leader of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation (KPRF) Gennady Zyuganov called the election the result of Lam’s years-long devotion to national interests. He expressed his belief that under the leadership of Lam, the Communist Party of Vietnam will continue the renewal process taken by late General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong and the Vietnamese people to successfully realise the Resolution of the 13th National Party Congress.
Meanwhile, National Secretary of the French Communist Party Fabien Roussel said he believes that under Lam’s leadership, Vietnam will continue its socio-economic development path, and efforts for peace and stability in the region and the world.
General Secretary of the United Left Movement (MIU) Party and Minister of Regional Integration Policies of the Dominican Republic Miguel Mejia said the election demonstrates the acknowledgement and trust of the CPV, Party leaders and the Vietnamese people towards Lam, noting a belief that under his leadership, the CPV will strengthen its solidarity and unity, successfully implement targets set at the 13th National Party Congress, and reap new revolutionary achievements.
