VTV.vn - Party General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong, who is also Secretary of the Central Military Commission, inspected the training in preparation for combat readiness at the National Shooting School Region 1, on November 19.

Speaking at the working session with the leaders of the Ministry of National Defense following the inspection, the Party leader praised the achievements that the ministry has made in directing the implementation of military and defense diplomacy tasks over recent times.

Amid the unpredictable regional and world development, increasing activities by hostile forces that aim to sabotage the Party, State and army and continuous natural disasters, officers and soldiers have united with the people in order to overcome difficulties and fulfill all of the assigned tasks, he said.

Especially, the army worked effectively with other armed forces and local authorities to ensure the absolute safety of the APEC 2017 Economic Leaders’ Week in the central city of Da Nang, from November 6-11.

Regarding the upcoming missions, Party General Secretary Trong asked the Party Organization of the military to thoroughly grasp the situation and provide timely advice to the Party and State regarding defense-security, and socio-economic development strategies, while accelerating the construction of a revolutionary, regular, elite and modern people’s army.

Military officers and soldiers must continuously consolidate political firmness, actively study in order to master modern weapons, raise their vigilance and sharpen their combat will, he said, stressing the need to prevent “self-evolution” and “self-transformation” among them.

The army needs to closely work with the police force, Party committees and authorities at all levels, as well as mass organizations and the people to resolutely fight against all sabotage plots executed by hostile forces, maintain political security, social order and safety, and ensure the absolute safety for important political events and major celebrations, he stressed.
