The relationship had been fostered by the late Presidents Ho Chi Minh and Mao Zedong and generations of revolutionaries and people in both countries, the letter said.
The tradition of friendship was manifested in the comprehensive strategic co-operation and partnership forged by the two countries under the motto of ‘friendly neighbourliness, comprehensive co-operation, long-lasting stability and looking towards the future' and in the spirit of ‘good neighbours, good friends, good comrades and good partners,' Manh wrote in the letter.
In his own letter to the festival, Chinese President and Party leader Hu Jintao said China was committed along with Viet Nam to constantly boosting co-operation in every field and deepening exchanges and friendship between the two countries.
He reaffirmed the importance of exchanges between young people, which would help boost mutual understanding and bring the friendship closer to the hearts of all people in both countries. The future of the two countries and of the relationship belonged to the younger generations, he said.
The festival, taking place in Guangxi, China, is celebrating the 65th anniversary of diplomatic relations between Viet Nam and China. — VNS
