Earlier this April, the Vietnamese Ministry of National Defense invited China, Laos, and Cambodia to send military personnel to participate in the parade. The Vietnamese Ministry of National Defense also sent an official letter inviting the leaders of the Chinese, Lao, and Cambodian Ministries of National Defense to attend the celebration.

The 50th anniversary of national reunification is a major political event for Vietnam, and at the same time a shared joy with international friends who have given sincere and wholehearted assistance to the Vietnamese revolution. Vietnam always remembers that great assistance, especially from China, Laos and Cambodia.

In recent times, defense cooperation between Vietnam and China, Laos and Cambodia has been continuously promoted in various fields. Highlights include delegation exchanges, training, military cooperation, and border defense friendship exchanges.

On the morning of April 30, on Le Duan Street (HCMC), there will be a ceremony to celebrate the 50th anniversary of national reunification, including a parade with the participation of the army, militia, police, and the masses. The total number of participants in the parade is about 13,000.
