Activities celebrate 1973 Paris Agreement anniversary
Around 50 international delegates will take part in activities to commemorate the 40th anniversary of the Paris Agreement ending the war in Vietnam.
Nguyen Thi Hoang Van, Secretary General of the Vietnam Union of Friendship Organisations (VUFO), made the statement at a press conference in Hanoi on January 17.
Among the delegates will be 30 representatives from 14 countries and several international organisations that directly or indirectly contributed to the success of the agreement, and participated in international movements to support Vietnam’s struggle for national liberation and unification. They are those who are helping Agent Orange/dioxin (AO) victims in Vietnam today.
Delegates will attend a State-level meeting with Party and State leaders, plant trees at Hoa Binh Park and join the exchange programme “Paris Agreement and friends’ heart” in Hanoi.
In Ho Chi Minh City, they will take part in a meeting with historical witnesses, and visit the War Remnants Museum and AO victims.
