Beijing (VNA) – The article “Several theoretical and practical issues in socialism and the path toward socialism in Vietnam” holds significance, reflecting a strategic vision, brainpower and dedication of General Secretary of the Communist Party of Vietnam (CPV) Central Committee Nguyen Phu Trong to Vietnam’s revolutionary cause based on the application of Marxism-Leninism and reality in the country.

It was stated by Rui Wei, head of the Vietnamese section at China Radio International, in an interview recently granted to Vietnam News Agency correspondents in Beijing.

Rui said the article has received special attention from China’s political circle and ideologists, contributing to further enriching Marxism-Leninism and contributing to the ideological system of socialism in the world.

In the article, Trong delved into the nature of capitalism, saying that capitalism itself could not remedy its own existing basic contradictions.

The CPV stays consistent with its stance that the State is “of the people, by the people, for the people”, with people as a centre. Every thought and action should originate from public interests which are also the highest goal. It also coincides with the Communist Party of China’s ruling stance on “looking toward the people”, he said.

Rui added that achievements in economic development and improvement of people’s life in both Vietnam and China, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic, have proved the superiority of the socialist regime.

Over the past years, China has been Vietnam’s top trade partner for 16 consecutive years while Vietnam has also been the largest trade partner of China in ASEAN. In the first five months of this year, two-way trade surpassed 64 billion USD, up 44.3 percent year-on-year, according to him.

About opportunities and challenges faced by Vietnam, Rui said under the leadership of the CPV, concentrated management of the State, and consensus of the entire political system and people, Vietnam has reaped great achievements, basically looking towards a strong country with wealthy people, democracy, equality and civilisation, striving to accomplish national development goals on the occasion of the 100th anniversary of the CPV.

To such end, he highlighted a need to have a favourable international environment./.
