On June 24, Viet Nam Day in Greece 2026, under the theme “Viet Nam–Ho Chi Minh: From Patriot to Symbol of National Liberation”, officially opened in Athens.

Party General Secretary To Lam, Secretary of the Central Military Commission, on February 10 met with retired military generals to honour and express gratitude for their great contributions to national liberation and to the construction and defence of the socialist Vietnamese Fatherland, on the threshold of the Lunar New Year (Tet) Festival 2026.

Viet Nam’s struggle for independence has inspired many people, even those in the US, American social activist Juliet Ucelli said in an interview granted to Viet Nam News Agency correspondents in New York on the occasion of the 80th anniversary of the August Revolution and National Day of Viet Nam (September 2).

State President Luong Cuong on September 1 stressed that the Party, State, and people of Viet Nam always treasure and remember the solidarity and wholehearted support that Cuba gave Viet Nam during its past struggle for national liberation and reunification, as well as in the ongoing process of national construction and defence.

Viet Nam has always been a symbol of revolutionary spirit and national liberation, inspiring the Palestinian people’s struggle, Issam Makhoul, Politburo member of the Communist Party of Israel (CPI) and Head of the Democratic Front for Peace and Equality (Hadash), has stated.
