Accordingly, the top priority of the CPV over the next four years is to successfully achieve its strategic goals: becoming a developing country with modern industry and upper-middle income by 2030, laying the groundwork for the next strategic breakthrough - becoming a developed, high-income country by 2045.

According to the Russian press outlet, Viet Nam’s rapid development programme, building on the achievements of modernisation over the last 40 years, sets a target of at least 10% average annual GDP growth in during 2026-2030. Achieving this goal will require a new growth model, comprehensive economic restructuring, and an acceleration of industrialisation and modernisation. It noted that Viet Nam identifies science, technology, and innovation as the primary drivers for its rapid development.

Frelimo reported that Hanoi has been uniformly adorned with flags and posters celebrating the vital political event of the Vietnamese Party and people.

By hosting the 14th National Party Congress, Hanoi continues to reaffirm its role as the country’s political and cultural centre, contributing to promoting the values of solidarity among Vietnamese people, it said.

Regarding the first working day on January 19, Frelimo reported that the congress focused on reviewing and approving the agenda for the preparatory session and the election regulations, under the chair of Politburo member and National Assembly Chairman Tran Thanh Man.
