Careful preparations for seminar on building all-people’s defense reviewed

In line with the Central Military Commission’s policy on strengthening the whole-people’s defense to meet new requirements, the Ministry of National Defense will organize the seminar.

General Nguyen Tan Cuong chairs the meeting.

The event aims to review major achievements and identify existing shortcomings in building the whole-people’s defense, while proposing key orientations and solutions for developing a strong and modern defense posture. Discussions will focus on clarifying the concept and substance of the all-people’s defense; new defense thinking in the current era; building a strong and modern defense posture associated with the “people’s heart posture”; and combining national defense consolidation with socio-economic development to enhance the country’s standing in the new period.

Concluding the meeting, General Nguyen Tan Cuong commended the Vietnam Institute for Defense Strategy and History, the standing body of the seminar’s steering committee, for its preparation work. He emphasized that the seminar is an important theoretical activity aimed at concretizing the Party’s guidelines on military and defense in the new context.
