This is an important event to further promote the traditional cooperation between the two strategic partners Vietnam and the Russian Federation and to especially promote cooperation in training, research and technology transfer between VNU along with its member units and higher education institutions of the Russian Federation; between scientists, teachers of VNU and their Russian counterparts. With thousands of leading professors, scientists, and intellectuals who have studied and worked in the former Soviet Union and now the Russian Federation, VNU Chapter of the Vietnam - Russia Friendship Association has a very special position and will certainly have an important and worthy contribution to the maintenance and promotion of cooperation between the two nations and two peoples.

As scheduled, in 2020, the Chapter in collaboration with VNU’s member universities and affiliated schools is going to organize a series of Russia-related activities. To be specific, the Chapter in collaboration with VNU University of Foreign Languages and International Studies will hold the 65th  Anniversary of Russian language teaching in Vietnam; with VNU University of Social Sciences and Humanities to organize an international seminar on the 70th anniversary of the Vietnam - Russia cooperation and friendship; and with VNU International School and the Russian Reading Room at the School to organize an exchange day for former Vietnamese students in the Soviet Union, Russian students in Vietnam and those who love Russia, Russian and the Russian culture on the last Saturday afternoon of every month and other activities to promote cooperation between VNU and its Russian partners.
