This year, the communist event took place with many of its activities held online due to the complicated developments of the COVID-19 pandemic.
During the three-day festival, more than 40 seminars were organised regarding socio-economic-health crisis caused by the coronavirus pandemic, the development trend of the media in France and situations in several regions in the world.
The editor-in-chief of the French daily newspaper L'Humanite, Patrick Le Hyaric, appreciated the participation of Nhan Dan Newspaper in the festival despite difficulties caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.
He affirmed that the booth run by Nhan Dan Newspaper is an important highlight in the festival which not only introduces information about President Ho Chi Minh and the land and people of Vietnam but also serves as an encouragement and sympathy of current difficulties that France and many other countries are facing due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
He noted that the Nhan Dan booth was an attractive destination thanks to its diverse activities and information to help international friends learn more about Vietnam and its people.
Head of the organising board of L'Humanité Festival 2020 Thibaut Weiss said that the presence of Nhan Dan Newspaper contributes to promoting the friendship, solidarity and traditional sentiment between France and Vietnam while helping the French people to learn more about Vietnam.
At the event, a documentary film entitled “President Ho Chi Minh at the Tours Congress 1920” produced by Nhan Dan Television was introduced on the website of L'Humanité newspaper along with other online activities.
