He expressed confidence that the congress would comprehensively review the implementation of resolutions from the previous term and adopt strategic documents to promote breakthrough development in key areas such as digital transformation, nuclear energy, and modernization of infrastructure serving laborers.
Vietnam’s achievements over the past five years are the result of the effective and consistent leadership of the CPV, he stated, noting that improving living standards and human development can only be achieved in a united and stable society. Drawing from Belarus’s experience, he pointed out that external influences can only cause instability when internal social cohesion is weak, underscoring the particularly important role of ideological work, communication, and mass mobilization.
Regarding bilateral relations, Sergey Syrankov affirmed that the friendship between the two parties and peoples of Belarus and Vietnam is built on a long historical foundation, from Vietnam’s struggle for independence to the current stage of cooperation. President Ho Chi Minh, the leader of the national liberation movement and founder of the Communist Party of Vietnam, once visited Belarus.
This relationship has continued to be strengthened through recent high-level visits, especially the visit to Belarus by CPV General Secretary To Lam in May 2025, which elevated bilateral ties to a strategic partnership. He also highlighted the mutual contributions of the two countries in human resource training and international support during various historical periods.
Amid a complex international situation, the First Secretary of the Communist Party of Belarus said that strengthening inter-party cooperation is important for promoting peace, stability, and development. He noted that both sides are working toward building a roadmap for inter-party cooperation for the 2026-2030 period, including industrial, economic, scientific, and educational projects, as well as expanding transport and aviation connectivity.
Belarus is particularly interested in Vietnam’s renewal and Party building experience, as well as its ability to mobilize the business sector to participate in implementing national development strategies, he noted.
Sergey Syrankov affirmed that Belarus and Vietnam should continue to coordinate closely within multilateral and interregional mechanisms such as the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS), the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU), the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO), BRICS, and other organizations; support the principles of multipolarity and non-interference in internal affairs; and strengthen cooperation on international and regional security.
According to him, maintaining and deepening relations among political parties is an important foundation for consolidating traditional solidarity, safeguarding national interests, and effectively responding to challenges in a rapidly changing world.
