The Socialist Republic of Vietnam is a complete, unified entity in terms of nature - history and politics - society, including all elements of territory, population, cultural values, history, national rights and the socialist regime. Therefore, protecting the Socialist Republic of Vietnam is protecting both the natural - history and political - social aspects in a unified whole; protecting independence, sovereignty, unity, territorial integrity and the socialist regime. The Party's Platform (supplemented and developed in 2011) affirmed: "The goal and task of national defense and security is to firmly protect the independence, sovereignty, unity and territorial integrity of the Fatherland, protect the Party, State, people and socialist regime, maintain peace, political stability, ensure national security and social order and safety; proactively prevent and defeat all plots and sabotage actions of hostile forces against the revolutionary cause of our people".
During the 32 years of implementing the 1991 Platform and 12 years of implementing the Platform (supplemented and developed in 2011), our country has achieved great and historic achievements in many fields. The country's situation is basically stable but there are still many difficulties and challenges. The 13th National Party Congress assessed that "the world and regional situation continues to change very rapidly, complicatedly and unpredictably. Peace, cooperation and development are still the major trends, but also face many obstacles, difficulties and challenges. Globalization and international integration continue to progress but are also threatened by the rise of extreme nationalism, strategic competition, economic competition, and fierce trade wars".
Due to the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic, the world has fallen into a serious crisis on many fronts. The Fourth Industrial Revolution is developing strongly, creating breakthroughs in many fields, bringing both opportunities and challenges to all countries. Countries are adjusting their development strategies and methods to adapt to the new situation. The Asia-Pacific region continues to have an increasingly important strategic position. In Southeast Asia, the security environment and sovereignty disputes in the East Sea are still complicated. Climate change, natural disasters, epidemics and other non-traditional security issues, especially cyber security, are increasingly having a strong and multi-faceted impact, seriously threatening the stable and sustainable development of the world, the region and our country.
Besides, the revolutionary cause of our Party and people still faces many difficulties and challenges; fierce sabotage by hostile forces with extremely sophisticated and insidious plots and tricks such as "peaceful evolution", riots and overthrows, interference from the outside combined with causing instability from within, taking advantage of and inciting ethnic, human rights and religious issues in order to sabotage us in all fields, creating opposition forces to lower the leadership role and prestige of our Party in order to achieve their goals. Therefore, in order to effectively protect the Socialist Republic of Vietnam, first of all, it is necessary to raise the awareness of Party committees at all levels, authorities at all levels, the Fatherland Front and organizations in innovating and improving the quality and effectiveness of education and propaganda work to make the entire Party, the entire people and the entire army increasingly fully and deeply aware of the basic contents, great and lasting values of Marxism-Leninism and Ho Chi Minh Thought; make Marxism-Leninism and Ho Chi Minh Thought truly become the solid spiritual foundation of social life, build Vietnamese culture and people to meet the requirements of sustainable development. On the other hand, it is necessary to determine that the task of protecting the Socialist Fatherland is the cause of the entire people, promote the combined strength of the entire nation in the struggle to protect the ideological foundation of the Party, protect the Socialist Republic of Vietnam, towards the goal of "Rich people, strong country, democracy, fairness, civilization"./.
