The program aimed to enhance the friendship and mutual understanding between the two countries as well as to realize the cultural exchange promotion content which is included in the Joint Vision Statement for Peace, Prosperity and People approved by the two nations’ Prime Ministers in December 2020.
Indian Deputy Ambassador to Vietnam Subhash P. Gupta said “the exchange program today is really meaningful, especially when the Vietnamese traditional New Year is drawing near. It marks the close relationship and cultural exchange between Vietnam and India. In the previous online meeting, two countries’ Prime Ministers concurred to build an encyclopedia to archive documents about the typical cultures of the two sides. The program today also aims to contribute to this goal”.
