They agreed to effectively implement the 2021 bilateral agenda, including strengthening exchange and sharing experience and consultation on issues of mutual interest, while closely coordinating and supporting each other at international organizations and multilateral forums, VOV cited.

During the fight against the pandemic, Vietnam and Cuba provide each other with medical supplies, which is the vivid evidence of the brotherhood and solidarity between the two countries, significant and meaningful to bilateral relations. Cuba handed over thousands of vials of its antiviral drug to Vietnam to assist the fight against COVID-19. The drug, Interferon alfa-2b, produced by Cuba to European standards, induces the human body to produce antibodies against the novel coronavirus. The drug could play a vital role in treating severely ill COVID-19 patients. A group of Cuban health experts were also been sent to Vietnam to support the fight against coronavirus in 2020. Meanwhile, Vietnam has sent 3 tonnes of medical equipment to Cuba which includes fast test kits and medical face masks, Vietnam News cited.
