The Italian Communist Party on May 19 published an article paying tribute to President Ho Chi Minh on the occasion of his birth anniversary, describing him as a pivotal leader of Viet Nam’s liberation struggle and a global symbol of anti-colonial resistance and anti-imperialist movements.

The 14th National Congress of the Communist Party of Viet Nam (CPV) represented a defining moment of Viet Nam as it laid out a clear pathway for the country to achieve the high-income developed status by 2045, according to Francesco Maringio, head of the external relations department of the Italian Communist Party.
