State President Nguyen Xuan Phuc has extended best regards, warm sentiments and deep gratitude towards people who rendered services to the nation on the occasion of the 74th War Invalids and Martyrs Day (July 27).

In a letter sent to Heroic Vietnamese Mothers, Heroes of People’s Armed Forces, Labour Heroes, wounded and sick soldiers, martyrs’ relatives and revolution contributors on July 24, the State leader recalled their great sacrifice to the fatherland and paid tribute to late President Ho Chi Minh.

When he was still alive, President Ho Chi Minh once said: “The brave sacrifice by fallen combatants helped the nation enjoy the fruits of independence and freedom. The Vietnamese people always remember the merits of the martyrs,” President Phuc wrote.

The President underlined that over the past 74 years, the Party and State have paid great attention to caring for war invalids and people who rendered services to the nation with many practical activities that have received support and engagement from the entire society.

Meanwhile, with the spirit of self-reliance, many war invalids and wounded veterans have overcome difficulties to rise in the life, becoming outstanding examples for the community and society, he noted.

The President expressed belief that war invalids, wounded veterans, martyrs’ relatives and revolution contributors will continue to join hands with the Party and people to defeat the COVID-19 pandemic.

President Phuc said he hoped the party committees and administrations at all levels, as well as ministries, sectors and localities will actively engage in caring for war invalids and wounded veterans.

He wished war invalids, wounded veterans, martyrs’ relatives and revolution contributors good health and more successes in patriotism emulation movements, contributing to firmly safeguarding the fatherland.

The Party, State and people of Vietnam will forever remember the sacrifice of the heroes, martyrs, war invalids, wounded veterans and revolution contributors for the cause of national liberation, construction and protection, he stressed.
