He affirmed that great efforts made by the entire Party, military and people have contributed to achievements in the implementation of this important resolution over the past decade.
The Party, army, and people have built development institutions, promoted the strength of the great national unity bloc, firmly safeguarded national independence, sovereignty and territorial integrity. They have also stood firm to protect the Party, State, people, as well as the socialist regime, and ensure social security and order, while maintaining a peaceful and stable environment, the President said.
Meanwhile, foreign relations have been enhanced, and the direct and comprehensive leadership of the Party and the concentrated management of the State over defence-security and armed forces have been strengthened, he said.
The armed forces, particularly the army and police, have strongly grown in terms of both quality and quantity, making up the key forces in national defence, he added.
Phuc underlined the need to organise more discussions and seminars on viewpoint and strategy for national defence in the new situation.
He asked the Steering Committee to collect opinions to complete the outline and plan for reviewing the 10-year implementation of the resolution, while dealing with relevant issues to ensure the highest efficiency of the committee’s second meeting.
