Leaders of various Italian regions, cities and provinces demonstrated profound friendship and solidarity with Vietnam, considering Vietnam one of the priority countries for internationalisation efforts in the coming period. This year, two more Vietnamese language departments are scheduled to be opened at Italian universities to meet the growing demand for understanding Vietnam. Wearing a traditional Vietnamese costume, Ringsaker from Norway shared that he has taken part in the festival several times. He noted that he really likes the meaning of the local delicacy, as well as traditional Vietnamese culture during Tet.
