Buenos Aires (VNA) – Chairwoman of the Argentina-Vietnam
Culture Institute (ICAV) Poldi Sosa Schmidt has attributed Vietnam’s successes to
the sound and ingenious leadership of the Communist Party of Vietnam (CPV) and
consensus of the whole nation.
In an interview recently
granted to the Vietnam News Agency's reporter in Buenos Aires, Poldi Sosa said
throughout its revolutionary history, the CPV has always played a vanguard role
and gathered people from walks of life under its fighting flag to make Vietnam an
independent and sovereign nation. Following national reunification later, the
CPV continued affirming its leadership role and mapped out development
orientations, riding Vietnam through challenges to gradually prosper
economically. In recent years, Vietnam’s position and voice have been
increasingly respected on the international arena.
Poldi Sosa said that she has
taken ICAV delegations to Vietnam nearly 20 times since 1998. The country’s
changes happen every day and take her from surprise to surprise. The Vietnamese
people’s lives have improved significantly over time and the nation has become
a destination that many international friends always expect.
She described the upcoming
13th National Congress of the CPV as a significant event to review
successes and shortcomings in the past five years, and outline
orientations for Vietnam in the next period amid complicated and uncertain developments in
the region and the world.
With solidarity and high
consensus in the Party, she believed that the 13th National Party Congress will be a success,
opening up a new period of development and success for Vietnam.
The ICAV Chairwoman
regularly studies Vietnam’s issues via books published in Spanish language and
magazines with stories about its history and people. When Vietnam is preparing
for the 13th National Party Congress, she frequently checks information about this important
political event on the Internet to share with her friends as well as at events
organised by the ICAV to popularise Vietnam.
In her young age, Poldi Sosa also joined movements protesting
the war in Vietnam. She founded ICAV and served as its Chairwoman so far, creating
a bridge to foster friendship and solidarity with the Vietnamese people, as
well as stepping up activities to popularise Vietnam’s culture and people to
Argentine friends./.
