The exhibition features 50 black-and-white and colour archive photos which reflect the increasingly strong solidarity between the peoples of Vietnam and India. The photos introduce to the public touching moments of bilateral ties, from President Ho Chi Minh’s warm reception for Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru during the latter’s visit to Vietnam in 1954 to the presence of both President Prasat and Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru at New Delhi airport to welcome President Ho Chi Minh during his India visit in 1958. Visitors can get a look at important milestones in bilateral ties, including the elevation of bilateral ties to a Strategic Partnership and then to a Comprehensive Strategic Partnership; as well as activities in economic and defence cooperation, people-to-people diplomacy, and mutual support and assistance in the combat against the COVID-19 pandemic. Vietnam News Agency General Director Vu Viet Trang said the event is expected to highlight the historic landmarks in the friendship between the two countries, and the sentiment and sharing that the countries’ peoples have given to each other over the last five decades. Indian Ambassador to Vietnam Pranay Verma said the photo exhibition offers a glimpse of some precious historical moments in the India-Vietnam relations and captures the depth of the bilateral ties and close friendship. Due to Covid-19, the exhibition can be viewed online in both Vietnamese and English until January 11./.
