In his closing remarks, Party General Secretary To Lam stressed that the Party Central Committee unanimously affirmed the great and historic achievements attained over nearly a century under the Party’s leadership.

The 15th plenum of the 13th Party Central Committee
concluded on the morning of December 23 after two days of intensive working,
completing all agenda items with a high degree of consensus and quality,
according to a report from the Vietnam News Agency.

In his closing remarks, Party General Secretary To Lam
stressed that the Party Central Committee unanimously affirmed the great and
historic achievements attained over nearly a century under the Party’s
leadership.

The implementation of the 1991 Party Platform and its
revised and supplemented version in 2011 has reaffirmed the correctness,
creativity, and appropriateness of the Party’s “Doi moi” (renewal)
path, as well as the inevitability of Vietnam’s socialist-oriented development,
which is in line with national realities and global trends, he said.

Forty years of the “Doi moi” cause, including notable
contributions during the 13th Party Congress tenure, represent the crystallization
of the long process of persistent, continuous, and resolute efforts, as well as
the national spirit and will of the Party, the State, and the people, yielding
valuable theoretical and practical lessons for the Vietnamese people’s
revolution in the new era.

The leader noted that throughout the 13th tenure, amid rapid
and unpredictable global and regional changes, compounded by pandemics, natural
disasters, climate change and geopolitical and geo-economic challenges, the
Party Central Committee, the Politburo, and the Secretariat have remained
united, steadfast, self-reliant, and innovative, showing exceptional
determination and efforts while issuing major strategic decisions and
breakthrough policies, thereby enabling the country to fulfil the targets set
by the 13th National Party Congress, and creating new momentum and development
space for the nation.

General Secretary Lam said that the Party Central Committee
identified several strategic breakthroughs for the new revolutionary stage,
including strong reform of institutional frameworks for development; stronger decentralization
and delegation of power; breakthrough in science, technology, innovation and
digital transformation; and the development of new production capacities and
business models.

Priority will also be given to restructuring and improving
the quality of human resources; developing high-quality manpower; and strongly
reforming the personnel work, and encouraging and protecting dynamic and
creative officials who dare to think, act and take responsibility for the
common good. Socio-economic infrastructure, especially in transport, technology
and energy, will continue to be completed and promoted, along with efforts to
implement other key tasks, he added.

The Party Central Committee unanimously adopted the report
on Party personnel affairs to be submitted to the 14th National Party Congress,
and voted with a high level of concurrence to approve the personnel nominated
to join the 14th Party Central Committee (both official and alternate members),
as well as the personnel nominated for election to the Politburo, the
Secretariat, and the key leadership positions of the Party and the State for
the 2026–2031 tenure, to be submitted to the 14th National Party Congress for
consideration, decision, and election in accordance with the Party Statutes and
regulations.

The Party Central Committee thoroughly discussed the
contents related to preparations for, and the successful organization of the
14th National Party Congress, and assigned the Politburo to continue refining
the preparations to ensure the Congress is organized successfully.

The 14th National Party Congress is an important political
event of the Party and the nation, a historic milestone of the country in the
Ho Chi Minh era, marking the convergence of the nation’s millennia-old civilizational
traditions as it rises to enter a new era. Cadres, Party members, and the
people are closely following the preparations, placing great attention and high
expectations on the success of the Congress.

The Party General Secretary requested members of the Party
Central Committee and all Party members nationwide to continue upholding their
spirit and sense of responsibility, strictly implement and lead the effective
implementation of the Resolution of the 13th Party Central Committee’s 15th
meeting, focus on well performing routine tasks, and urgently complete the
remaining tasks to ensure that the 14th National Party Congress is a great
success in line with the set program and plan.

On behalf of those entrusted with nominations to the Party
Central Committee and key leadership positions for the next tenure for
consideration and decision by the 14th National Party Congress, the General
Secretary expressed gratitude to the Party Central Committee, the Politburo,
and the Secretariat for their trust and assignment of tasks, affirming the
determination to continue working in unity and solidarity with a strong sense
of responsibility and high effectiveness, worthy of the trust of the Party and
the people.
