The Vietnam-Cuba relationship is one of heartfelt sincerity, driven by the selflessness of the two peoples, and is not influenced by any interests or geopolitical considerations, according to Fredesmán Turró González, former Cuban Ambassador to Vietnam and Vice President of the Cuba–Vietnam Friendship Association.

The close-knit relationship between Cuba and Vietnam, founded by President Ho Chi Minh and Commander-in-Chief Fidel Castro and nurtured by the two countries’ generations of leaders and people, is a symbol of the era and of solidarity, said President of the National Assembly of People's Power of Cuba Esteban Lazo Hernández.
