Our country has lost a talented leader; the communist and progressive movement in the world has lost a sharp theorist; international friends have lost a sincere friend and close comrade; the family, clan, and homeland of Dong Hoi have lost an outstanding son.
With nearly 60 years of rich and persistent revolutionary activities, Professor, Doctor, General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong, with his profound and sharp intelligence, has left the entire Party, the entire people, and the entire army a valuable system of ideology and theory on the path of the Vietnamese revolution in the new era. Firmly and creatively applying Marxism-Leninism and Ho Chi Minh Thought, with the goal of national independence and socialism, thinker Nguyen Phu Trong, the theoretical flag of the Party, has clarified the theory of socialism and the path to socialism in Vietnam, the role of the Communist Party, the socialist-oriented market economy... That invaluable legacy has strengthened the strong belief in the path to socialism, making an important contribution to the development of the communist movement in the world, developing Marxism-Leninism and Ho Chi Minh Thought in the present era.
With a strategic vision of the international situation in the contemporary world, with constant efforts to contribute to maintaining and preserving a peaceful and stable environment in the region and the world, he opened a new chapter in the relationship between our country and international partners, promoted the friendship between Vietnam and other countries, increased Vietnam's contributions through many commitments and practical actions, closely combined national strength with the strength of the times, and brought our country forward strongly.
Inspiring and leading our entire Party, people and army with intelligence, a noble spirit of humanity and benevolence, with strong will and determination, with the personality and honor of a communist soldier who wholeheartedly serves the Fatherland and the people, with the belief that "Honor is the most sacred and noble thing", steadfast leader Nguyen Phu Trong has continuously built our Party to be increasingly clean and strong, leading our country and our people to successfully implement the path of innovation.
President To Lam emphasized that throughout his revolutionary career, the work of building and rectifying the Party and the political system has held a particularly important position for Comrade Nguyen Phu Trong. Creatively applying Ho Chi Minh's thought on Party building, Comrade Nguyen Phu Trong has deeply clarified the nature of the Party and the building of a ruling Party from the practice of renovation in Vietnam. Since then, he and the Central Executive Committee have planned and led the successful implementation of strategic policies on Party building and rectification; resolutely and persistently fighting against individualism, against ideological, moral and lifestyle degradation, against corruption and negativity in the Party. This is an extremely arduous fight against "internal invaders" that has made our Party increasingly clean and strong, affirming its pioneering role, mettle and intelligence, so that our Party can truly be "moral and civilized".
Under his leadership, for the first time, our Party issued a specialized Resolution on building and perfecting the Vietnamese socialist rule-of-law state of the people, by the people, and for the people. As President and Chairman of the National Assembly, he was always concerned and concerned with the issue of building a legislative body that is truly the highest authority of the people, truly democratic and representing the legitimate and legal rights and interests of the people; perfecting a synchronous, unified, public, transparent, and feasible legal system, creating a solid legal corridor for proactive, deep, comprehensive international integration and strong national development.
Imbued with Ho Chi Minh's thought, deeply aware of the important position and role of culture "Culture is the soul of the nation", "Culture exists, the nation exists", the great culturalist Nguyen Phu Trong has devoted much enthusiasm and made especially important contributions to building an advanced Vietnamese culture, imbued with national identity, truly the spiritual foundation of society, an endogenous strength, an important driving force for national development. Under his leadership, after more than 70 years, our Party has organized a National Conference on Culture - a milestone connecting the thoughts and actions of the entire Party, people and army, strongly promoting the role of culture to realize the aspiration to develop a prosperous and happy country.
With a profound and sharp political vision, he raised the level of strategic thinking, creating a new step of development for Vietnam's national defense, security and foreign affairs. That is the idea of protecting the Fatherland early, from afar, protecting the country when the country is not yet in danger; always focusing on building a position of the people's hearts, building a revolutionary armed force that is elite, compact, strong, truly clean and strong; the Army and the Police are united like "two wings of a bird", like "a sword and a shield", joining hands, unanimously, overcoming all difficulties, hardships, sacrifices, maintaining peace and stability for national development. Promoting the pioneering role of comprehensive diplomacy, forming and effectively leading the implementation of the art of diplomacy of the new era imbued with the identity of "Vietnamese bamboo" on the basis of the Vietnamese character of "Responding to all changes with unchanging", "peaceful and filial", "using benevolence to replace violence". Under his leadership, Vietnam has become a reliable partner, an active and responsible member in the international arena; continuously integrating deeply and comprehensively into international politics, the world economy and human civilization.
Throughout the ideology of Comrade Nguyen Phu Trong is the people, the human being, wholeheartedly serving the people, building the new socialist human being and constantly consolidating great unity, first of all unity within the Party, national unity and pure international unity. Comrade is always determined to plan and successfully implement all policies and guidelines that are in line with the people's wishes; firmly maintain the stance, viewpoint and practice of "the people are the root", "the people are the subject and center of the renovation process". A true, sincere and righteous communist always keeps in mind and requires the entire Party and the entire political system to "have the highest responsibility to the people, care for the material and spiritual life of the people", "close connection with the people is the law of existence, development and operation of the Party, is the decisive factor creating the strength of the Party".
Throughout his life, General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong has persistently devoted himself to the revolutionary cause of the Party and our nation with a spirit and will of steel, never retreating in the face of obstacles and difficulties; with a sense of responsibility and revolutionary enthusiasm, working until his last breath, wholeheartedly, wholeheartedly, and devotedly to the Party, the country, and the people; affirming a great personality, living his entire life for the country, the Party, and the people. He is truly a typical, exemplary, shining example of pure revolutionary mettle and ethics, "impartiality", a simple, honest, sincere lifestyle, a democratic, dedicated, scientific, thorough, decisive working style, consistent between words and actions, respecting and loving people, and being very close to the people; It is truly the nucleus that gathers solidarity and intellectual unity of our entire Party, people and army, respected, trusted and proud by cadres, party members and people, and our compatriots abroad, and appreciated and highly appreciated by international friends.
In recognition of his outstanding contributions and achievements, the Party and State respectfully awarded him the Gold Star Order, the most noble award; but above all, he forever belongs to the Fatherland and the people.
Expressing his condolences and deep affection for comrade Nguyen Phu Trong, President To Lam affirmed that although he has passed away, his name and career, his contributions and contributions, his talent and virtue will shine forever in the glorious history of our Party and nation, in the gratitude of our cadres, party members and people, and in the affection of international friends. The entire Party, the entire people and the entire army vow to wholeheartedly carry out his wishes, to engrave in their hearts the advice "If you are human, be a Communist", to wholeheartedly serve the Fatherland and the people, to firmly follow the path that the Party, Uncle Ho and previous generations, including him, have chosen; to unite, to unite, to join forces, to be of one mind, to seize opportunities, to overcome challenges, to build our Party and a truly clean and strong political system, so that our people can have a prosperous and happy life, to contribute to building a progressive, civilized and ethical world. The legacy of General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong will live forever in Vietnamese history, and will be inherited and further promoted in the renovation process; successfully realizing the goal of building a peaceful, independent, unified, democratic, prosperous, civilized, and happy Vietnam that he cherished, strived for, and sacrificed for all his life.
