Hanoi (VNA) - A photo exhibition opened in Mozambiqꦐue's capital city of Maputo on June 26, marking five decades of the solidarity between Vietnam and the African country.
The event, jointly held by the Vietnamese Embassy in Mozambique and Joaquim Chissano University, drew around 300 delegates to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the diplomatic ties (June 25).
Ambassador Tran Thi Thu Thin affirmed that the exhibition is not merely a collection of photographs but a vivid testament to the time-honoured friendship and solidarity between the people of Vietnam and Mozambique.
She noted that while June 25, 1975 marks Mozambique’s independence and the official establishment of diplomatic relations with Vietnam, the bonds between the two sides began even earlier, forged through shared ideals and their respective struggles for national independence and self-determination.
