Addressing the conference, Party General Secretary and State President Nguyen Phu Trong noted that a new State apparatus should swiftly be appointed in order to effectively implement a resolution adopted at the recently-held 13th national Party Congress.
During the two-day gathering, General Secretary Trong said the Political Bureau, the supreme policy-making body of the Communist Party of Vietnam, will submit a list of candidates who will take the key positions within the new State apparatus, including State President, Prime Minister, and Chairperson of the National Assembly.
Once submitted, the list will be debated before being adopted by 200 members of the Party Central Committee, then subsequently introduced to the coming National Assembly in order for a vote to be held to ratify the positions.
Delegates are also set to discuss a range of other key issues, including the implementation of the Party’s resolution along with preparations for the upcoming election of deputies to the new National Assembly for the 2021-2026 tenure.
The Communist Party of Vietnam held its 13th national congress in Hanoi from January 26 to February 2, during which it adopted a resolution setting out a new development course for the nation over the coming five years and beyond.
The resolution will be carried out by the new State leadership which will be elected and ratified at the first session of the coming National Assembly.
Vietnamese people will cast their ballots this May to elect the new National Assembly for the 2021-2026 tenure.
