Havana, April 15 (RHC) The Cuban Deputy Minister of Higher Education, Reynaldo Velázquez Zaldívar, began a working visit to Vietnam, with the goal of assessing collaboration opportunities with institutions from the Asian nation.

According to Velázquez Zaldívar, this is a perfect occasion for reaching a new stage in collaboration and deepening the ties between educational institutions of both countries.

He emphasized that the collaboration could be achieved through joint projects, primarily with the four universities he will visit during his stay in Vietnam, which will continue until Thursday.
