During a meeting on April 26 with a high-level delegation from the Ho Chi Minh Communist Youth Union (HCMYU) Central Committee, led by its Secretary and President of the Vietnam Youth Federation Nguyen Tuong Lam, President Maduro extended his congratulations to the Communist Party of Vietnam (CPV), Party General Secretary To Lam, and the country’s leaders on the occasion of Vietnam's 50th anniversary of the Liberation of the South and National Reunification (April 30, 1975–2025).

He praised the Vietnamese people and armed forces for achieving a resounding victory under the guidance and leadership of President Ho Chi Minh and the CPV, noting that this triumph inspired not only the Vietnamese nation but also global movements for peace and national independence, including those in Venezuela.

Receiving a Spanish edition of the book "The world's affection for President Ho Chi Minh", President Maduro emphasised that President Ho Chi Minh, an eternal symbol of humanity’s aspirations for freedom and dignity, will continue to serve as a guiding light for the young generations of both Venezuela and Vietnam in building a peaceful and prosperous world.

On this occasion, he proposed strengthening practical cooperation between the Ho Chi Minh Communist Youth Union and the Youth Wing of the United Socialist Party of Venezuela (JPSUV), thereby enhancing the traditional friendship and comprehensive partnership between Vietnam and Venezuela.

For his part, Lam affirmed that the youth of both nations are committed to carrying forward and nurturing the deep-rooted friendship built by generations of leaders and people from the two countries. He added that the two youth organisations have agreed on specific measures to deepen bilateral cooperation, prioritising the sharing of experiences in political and ideological education, strengthening youth organisations, and effectively fulfilling the missions entrusted by the two Parties.

As part of the visit from April 24 - 27, the Vietnamese delegation also met with Rander Peña, Vice President for International Affairs of the United Socialist Party of Venezuela (PSUV); held talks with Grecia Colmenares, First Secretary of the JPSUV and Minister of Youth; and participated in a special seminar on the 1975 Spring Victory.
