He warned that hostile forces continue to exploit issues related to ethnicity, religion, democracy and human rights to sow division and destabilise grassroots areas, requiring constant vigilance and proactive readiness.To successfully fulfil all assigned tasks, he urged the armed forces to thoroughly grasp the Party’s guidelines on military and national defence in the new context; maintain a firm understanding of the situation; improve forecasting and assessment; and provide timely strategic advice to avoid any passivity or surprise in all circumstances.He stressed the need to strengthen defensive zones, closely integrate defence with security, foreign affairs and socio-economic development, and safeguard sovereignty, borders and public trust from an early stage and from the grassroots level.He also called for building a comprehensively strong force, with political steadfastness as the foundation. Officers and soldiers must demonstrate absolute loyalty to the Party, the Fatherland and the people; maintain firm political resolve, high combat readiness, strict discipline and a strong sense of responsibility.The force should continue to be streamlined, strong, revolutionary, regular, elite and modern, while mastering weapons and equipment, and improving training quality, command capacity, coordination and mobility under all terrain and weather conditions, particularly in border and remote areas, he said.Reiterating his message, the Party chief and State President emphasised that the Military Region 1 armed forces must remain a “combat force, a working force and a production force,” staying close to the people, respecting and learning from them, and taking responsibility for their well-being.He called for stronger coordination with local Party committees, authorities and mass organisations to enhance public outreach and strategic communications, and to defeat attempts to exploit ethnic and religious issues to undermine national unity.He also stressed the importance of ensuring adequate logistics, technical support, finance, communications and equipment for both routine and unexpected missions, while improving soldiers’ material and spiritual well-being.<figure class="table"><table><tbody><tr><td><figure class="image"><img src="https://image.vietnamnews.vn/uploadvnnews/Article/2026/4/12/496425_5452393846941945_vna_potal_tong_bi_thu_chu_tich_nuoc_du_le_don_nhan_danh_hieu_anh_hung_llvt_nhan_dan_cua_quan_khu_1_8696013.jpg" alt=""></figure></td></tr><tr><td>Party General Secretary and State President Tô Lâm presents the title “Hero of the People’s Armed Forces” to Military Region 1.

All vessels detected via VMS as crossing into foreign waters must be immediately classified as violations and handled promptly based on available data, regardless of whether they have been apprehended.Relevant ministries and agencies were urged to swiftly complete a coordination mechanism, clearly define responsibilities, and make effective use of existing data to enhance monitoring capacity, enable early detection, and prevent acts of IUU fishing from afar.He further instructed relevant agencies to ensure unified and real-time data systems such as the national fisheries database (VNFishbase) and the electronic catch documentation and traceability system (eCDT). Violations related to vessel ownership, registration, identification, and transfer must be comprehensively addressed, with stricter sanctions, including criminal proceedings in serious cases.The Deputy PM also highlighted the importance of tightening traceability processes, closing regulatory loopholes, and enhancing supervision of import–export enterprises to ensure compliance with both domestic laws and international practices.At the central level, the Ministry of Agriculture and Environment was tasked with establishing an inter-agency task force and developing a detailed action plan through 2026 to fully implement the EC’s recommendations. Localities were also instructed to set up similar task forces, clearly assign responsibilities, and ensure effective enforcement.Reaffirming Việt Nam’s commitment to responsible fisheries governance, Hà called for coordinated and determined efforts to implement both short- and long-term solutions, with the ultimate goal of having the EC’s “yellow card” warning lifted at the earliest possible time. — VNA/VNS

The city will continue to bring into full play the strengths of the three former localities as hubs of finance, science and technology, hi-tech industry, energy, tourism, maritime economy, and logistics, to boost cooperation with partners worldwide, including Russia.Hà emphasised that Perm’s strengths align well with Hồ Chí Minh City's development needs, particularly in industry and oil and gas services, opening up opportunities for businesses and experts from both sides to enhance exchanges, promote cooperation, and expand investment. In addition to economic, trade, and investment ties, he underlined the importance of stepping up collaboration in culture, education, and people-to-people exchanges.Perm Governor Dmitry Makhonin said Perm is located at the western foothills of the Ural Mountains - the natural boundary between Europe and Asia. Covering an area of 160,600 sq. km., it is one of Russia’s key industrial centres. The Krai boasts strengths in mining, oil and gas, chemicals, machinery manufacturing, metallurgy, defence industry, and high technology. It is also renowned for its rich tradition in performing arts, particularly ballet. Building on these advantages, Perm is keen to promote cooperation with Hồ Chí Minh City in areas of mutual interest.At a separate meeting with Andrey Vadimovich Panteleev, Deputy Governor of Tyumen Oblast, Vice Chairwoman of the municipal People’s Committee Trần Thị Diệu Thúy expressed confidence that Hồ Chí Minh City and Russian localities, including Tyumen, will step up trade promotion, business connectivity, and investment attraction efforts to tap the considerable cooperation potential between the two countries.She proposed that Hồ Chí Minh City and Tyumen enhance cooperation and share experience in the energy industry, oil and gas services, and resource extraction, while intensifying joint efforts to promote tourism potential to residents of both localities.Tyumen, located in Russia’s Ural region, spans more than 160,000 sq.km. With its strategic geographical position covering much of the West Siberian Plain, Tyumen plays a key role in connecting Russia’s major industrial and energy hubs. The oblast holds significant potential for industrial development, particularly in oil and gas and energy-supporting industries. It is also endowed with abundant natural resources, including oil, natural gas, freshwater, mineral water, forests, and various industrial minerals. — VNA/VNS

He described Việt Nam as one of the most efficient users of IMF assistance, particularly in applying policy recommendations to achieve fast and sustainable development.PM Chính thanked the IMF delegation for its insights and further clarified issues of the IMF's concern, including geopolitical and geo-economic issues, along with measures for ensuring macroeconomic stability, fostering growth, controlling inflation, and guaranteeing major economic balances, including energy security. He also mentioned the country's governance of fiscal and monetary policies amid global volatility, mobilisation of resources, and promotion of public–private partnerships in infrastructure development.Emphasising the spirit of “listening sincerely, sharing wholeheartedly and acting effectively,” the PM called on the IMF to further enhance the quality of policy dialogue and consultation with Việt Nam, provide timely global and regional economic forecasts, and strengthen technical assistance.He also suggested the fund support in building institutional capacity, modernising monetary and macroprudential policy frameworks, enhancing the financial and banking system, developing capital markets, improving statistics and forecasting capacity, and making structural reform to raise productivity.The Vietnamese Government's agencies, he affirmed, stand ready to maintain close coordination with the IMF, share information in accordance with regulations, and jointly develop policy assessments and recommendations aligned with the country’s reality and development goals, thus contributing to peace, cooperation, and development in the region and beyond. — VNA/VNS

These have advanced bilateral ties to a phase of simultaneous growth in both scale and quality, creating a notable local example for building a China–Việt Nam community with a shared future.Huang cited statistics showing that trade between Guangxi and Việt Nam exceeded 300 billion CNY (US$43.5 billion) last year, while cross-border travel surpassed 13 million visits. Economic and trade ties have expanded into higher value-added areas such as smart agriculture and cross-border industrial supply chain. The two sides also established 23 pairs of international sister cities, the highest number among Chinese localities.In particular, an early-spring meeting last month between the Secretary of the Guangxi Party Committee and leaders of five Vietnamese localities has ushered in a “new golden decade” of cooperation. The signed agreements cover a wide range of areas with substantial content, injecting fresh momentum and opening additional avenues for collaboration. Since last year, Guangxi–Việt Nam ties have not only expanded in volume but also advanced in quality, gradually shifting from a distribution-based economic model to industrial development and digital transformation, the official noted.Beyond economic links, people-to-people exchange has also ramped up through various cultural and sport activities between border localities. Last year, Guangxi cities, counties, communes, villages and hamlets ran border residents’ festivals and cross-border cycling events with Việt Nam.Notably, the friendship football tournament between China’s Dongxing and Việt Nam’s Móng Cái has continued uninterruptedly for 31 years. Under the guidance of Secretary of the Guangxi Party Committee Chen Gang, football has served as a bridge for exchanges, with the border event expanded into a competition involving Guangxi and five Vietnamese localities, thus renewing and deepening traditional friendship.Additionally, the round-the-clock “1369” cross-border medical emergency mechanism has facilitated treatment for nearly 700 critically ill patients, including more than 450 from Việt Nam.Huang said Fangchenggang will sustain exchanges with Việt Nam’s Quảng Ninh Province while boosting cooperation in personnel training, youth exchanges, and cross-border medical services. The city will also strengthen infrastructure and trade connectivity, study the “Two countries, two industrial parks” model for cross-border industry, and step up connectivity projects such as smart border gates, Bắc Luân III Bridge, and Dongxing–Móng Cái railway, in order to enhance trade efficiency and people-to-people interactions between the two nations. — VNA/VNS

She recalled that more than fifty years ago, on July 1, 1975, Portugal was among the first Western European countries to establish diplomatic relations with reunified Việt Nam.She also highlighted the deeper historical ties dating back over five centuries, when Portuguese traders first arrived in Hội An. In the 17th century, Portuguese missionaries left a lasting imprint by contributing to the development of the Vietnamese Latin-based script, which remains an invaluable cultural bond for the Vietnamese people.Hằng noted that Việt Nam’s launch of its embassy in Lisbon in November last year and Portugal’s establishment of its embassy in Hà Nội represent meaningful reciprocal steps. These diplomatic missions will serve as bridges to promote cooperation across politics, the economy, culture and education.She affirmed the Vietnamese Ministry of Foreign Affairs’ commitment to close coordination and favourable conditions to ensure the effective operation of the Portuguese Embassy.For his part, Portuguese Minister of State and Foreign Affairs Paulo Rangel described the inauguration as a highly significant moment, noting that the two countries' celebration of the fiftieth anniversary of modern diplomatic relations last year by opening embassies in each other’s capitals is a tribute to their shared history.He also referred to the cultural connections between the two nations, from references to Việt Nam by Portugal’s greatest poet Luis de Camoes, author of the epic Os Lusiadas, to the 16th-century accounts by writer Fernao Mendes Pinto, voicing his hope that the shared history will continue heralding a bright common future.Portuguese Ambassador Joaquim Alberto de Sousa Moreira de Lemos stressed that as Portugal’s first resident ambassador to Việt Nam, he considers the inauguration both symbolic and forward-looking, ushering in a new phase of friendship and comprehensive cooperation between the two countries. — VNS

The newspaper reported that Tô Lâm won unanimous support, securing all 180 votes during the first plenary session of the newly elected 14th Party Central Committee (PCC).The US-based Associated Press (AP) observed that under the leadership of Party General Secretary Lâm, Việt Nam has launched its most extensive round of administrative and economic reforms since the late 1980s, when the country embarked on its Đổi Mới (renewal) policy and liberalised its economy.According to AP, these efforts include streamlining the public sector, adjusting administrative boundaries and governance models to improve efficiency, while accelerating the implementation of large-scale infrastructure projects.AFP also commented that Tô Lâm’s re-election as General Secretary of the 14th PCC reflects the CPV’s strong support for the growth-oriented change direction it has pursued. The agency noted that during his tenure as General Secretary of the 13th PCC, Tô Lâm advanced a series of reforms aimed at improving governance and administrative efficiency, described as comprehensive and far-reaching.Bloomberg remarked that Party General Secretary Lâm has driven major organisational apparatus and governance reforms, considered the most significant in decades, to enhance state management efficiency and create momentum for economic growth.South China Morning Post quoted the Party chief at the 14th National Party Congress as saying that he will maintain unity of the Party while also highlighting the heavy workload in the new term. The newspaper said his re-election as Party chief sends a reassuring message to foreign investors who regularly cite political stability as a major factor ⁠in Việt Nam’s appeal.Media outlets also reported that the 14th National Party Congress elected a 19-member Politburo for the new term, thereby ensuring continuity in national leadership and governance in the period ahead.Overall, international press agencies assessed that the completion of the Congress’s agenda, the consolidation of the leadership apparatus, and the adoption of the Resolution of the 14th National Party Congress conveyed a strong message of political stability, internal unity, and consistent development orientation of the CPV in the new term. — VNA/VNS
