In a press release issued by the Venezuelan Ministry of People's Power for Foreign Affairs, the Government emphasised that the date of August 19, 1945, is a historic milestone reflecting the will and determination of the Vietnamese people, demonstrating to the world their indomitable spirit and steadfast resolve to master their own destiny.
It affirmed that the victory of the August Revolution not only paved the way for Viet Nam’s independence but also lit the hope and became a shining example of resilience for peoples fighting for sovereignty and self-determination.
The press release particularly highlighted that despite the passage of time, the heroic legacy of the Revolutionary Autumn has contributed to creating a vibrant and prosperous Viet Nam today - a nation regarded as an inspiration to the international community due to its dynamism and strong capacity for advancement.
On this occasion, the Venezuelan Government reaffirmed its desire to continue strengthening the traditional friendship and multifaceted cooperation with Viet Nam, while sending its best wishes to the Party, Government, and people of Viet Nam for a peaceful, prosperous future and even greater successes.
