The General Secretary affirmed: The 100-year history of Vietnam's revolutionary press is a vivid testament to the great role of the pen in the struggle for national independence, building and defending the socialist Fatherland. When there was no Party or Government, the press was the spiritual flame that guided and oriented ideology and policies, the light that pointed to the future; gathered the masses, built the political party, and built the state. In the fire of war, the press was a sharp weapon, stronger than bullets, bombs, tanks, and cannons, conveying the spirit of resistance, courage, and the desire for independence, calling on the entire nation to fight for national liberation and unification. In building, defending, and developing the country, the press was the bridge between the Party, the State, and the people, a trusted forum for the people, a strength, a source of inspiration for the entire nation on the path towards a prosperous, prosperous, independent, free, and sustainable future.

On behalf of the leaders of the Party, State and Vietnam Fatherland Front, General Secretary To Lam warmly congratulated Vietnamese revolutionary journalists on receiving the noble award from the Party, State and People for the second time: "Ho Chi Minh Medal" for their many contributions to the revolutionary cause of the Party and the nation.

According to the General Secretary, throughout the country's renovation process initiated and led by our Party, the press has not only been a witness but also a direct force promoting the process of reform, openness and international integration.

The press has made an important contribution to the formation and development of a democratic, civilized society with multi-dimensional and honest information, contributing to raising people's knowledge, creating social consensus and strengthening control of power, connecting the People with the Party, the Party with the People.

In recent years, our country's press has proactively innovated its content, form, technology and journalism mindset. With nearly 800 press agencies, tens of thousands of journalists, reporters, editors, and journalists, the team of journalists has been constantly innovating and strongly applying digital technology, artificial intelligence, and advanced scientific and technological achievements to create a new, modern, humane and popular appearance, tone and journalism content.

The press is also the main force in promoting the image of the country and Vietnamese people to the world, demonstrating Vietnam's solidarity and responsibility towards friends, progressive forces and the development of the world,...

It can be affirmed that the Vietnamese revolutionary press has been fulfilling its noble mission - creating trust, building consensus, spreading aspirations for development, contributing to realizing the goal of building a strong, prosperous and happy Vietnam in the new era," the General Secretary emphasized.

In the context of a rapidly changing, complex, and multi-dimensional world, revolutionary journalism has always maintained its role as a pioneering force in maintaining political stability, strengthening social consensus, firmly protecting national sovereignty, proactively fighting against erroneous and hostile viewpoints, protecting the Party's ideological foundation, etc.

At the Ceremony, on behalf of the Party and State leaders, General Secretary To Lam awarded the Ho Chi Minh Medal to the Vietnam Revolutionary Press for its many contributions to the revolutionary cause of the Party and the nation.
