The Cuban newspaper points out that recently Vietnam's Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh announced the shipment of 12,000 tons of rice to the island and assured that he would stand shoulder to shoulder with the Cuban people, who in the most difficult moments of our history were by the side of the Vietnamese people.
Some 20 tons of humanitarian aid were announced by the Bolivian government, including medical supplies and food, and according to the president of that nation, Luis Arce, the shipment is a gesture of reciprocity of solidarity with Cuba.
