NA Chairwoman backs ties with Czech Republic communist party

During a meeting in Prague on April 12 with KSCM Chairman and Vice Chairman of the Czech Parliament's Chamber of Deputies (Lower House) Vojtech Fillip, Ngan expressed her delight to learn that the KSCM holds the largest number of Party members in the Czech Republic's political parties and asked the KSCM to continue supporting ties with Vietnam. Vietnam treasures friendship and multifaceted cooperation with traditional friends in the Central- Eastern Europe, including the Czech Republic. She wished that the KSCM would further promote the Vietnam-Czech Republic comprehensive partnership, especially relations between localities. She also hoped that the party would reap success at the election of the Lower House this October and the Upper House in October 2018. Fillip, for his part, said the KSCM is ready to promote ties between the two Parties at the central and local levels. As the Czech Republic is home to a large number of Vietnamese nationals, the KSCM Chairman suggested further increasing cooperation between Vietnam's Nhan dan (People) newspaper and KSCM's Halo Noviny paper, saying that it will improve bilateral information exchange. The host expressed his belief that the upcoming visit to Vietnam by President Milos Zeman would contribute to lifting bilateral ties to a new height, affirming that the KSCM is the most close and trustworthy friend of Vietnam.
