At the Conference, members reviewed the heroic history and great significance of the Russian October Revolution. 107 years ago, on November 7, 1917, under the leadership of the Russian Communist Party, headed by V. Lenin, the Russian October Revolution won victory and entered human history as the greatest event of the 20th century. The October Revolution awakened the oppressed people, illuminated the path of development, and advanced to build socialism.

The October Revolution also laid the foundation for the precious traditional friendship between the Vietnamese and Russian peoples. Overcoming the test of time and historical ups and downs, the relationship between the two peoples has continuously developed and strengthened.

To strengthen that close relationship, throughout 2024, the Vietnam - Russia Friendship Association has had many activities related to people's foreign affairs. The Association regularly and proactively improves the quality of work, information, and promotion of the traditional solidarity, friendship, and cooperation between the State and people of Vietnam and Russia.
