Over the past 60 years, the solidarity and brotherhood between Vietnam and Cuba, founded by President Ho Chi Minh and President Fidel Castro, has been continuously promoted and grown stronger. "For Vietnam, Cuba is willing to sacrifice its own blood" - the immortal words of Cuban President Fidel Castro have been deeply imprinted in the hearts of generations of Vietnamese people, deeply expressing the brotherhood and comradeship between Vietnam and Cuba during the fierce war years and in the current process of national construction and innovation.
