At the meeting, delegates heard reports for consideration and comment on the draft report reviewing military and defence affairs in 2025 and outlining tasks for 2026; the draft resolution on leadership of military and defence missions and Party building within the Army Party Organisation in 2026; the plan for organising the 15th session of the Central Military Commission; the report on results of the Emulation Movement for Determined Victory and emulation and commendation work in 2025, and directions for 2026; and reports on the implementation of financial, investment and construction tasks, force management, the management and use of defence land, petroleum, production labour and economic development in line with the leadership regulations of the Central Military Commission.
The meeting contributed many important opinions, focusing on assessing and highlighting leadership outcomes in military and defence missions, and other key tasks of the Central Military Commission and the Ministry of National Defence; as well as the identification of remaining shortcomings and limitations requiring strengthened leadership and corrective measures.
Concluding the meeting, on behalf of the Standing Board of the Central Military Commission, General Phan Van Giang agreed in principle with the preparation the functional agencies carried out, noting that the draft report and draft resolution had been carefully, thoroughly, and scientifically prepared in line with the established orientations and directions.
He requested the functional agencies to adjust certain contents so that the draft review report and the draft resolution are consistent in their assessments and conclusions. Targets, orientations, missions, and solutions for 2026 must be clear, practical, and appropriate, especially key and breakthrough tasks geared towards implementing the goal of building a modernised Army as set out in the 12th Congress of the Army Party Organisation.
He also requested the addition of further details to the draft report reviewing military and defence affairs in 2025 and outlining missions for 2026, emphasising the need to highlight achievements in 2025 with comparisons to 2024 to demonstrate progress, effectiveness, and improved quality in leadership and implementation. At the same time, limitations and shortcomings must be frankly identified, with clear causes and specific responsibilities.
General Phan Van Giang noted that in 2026 the Government will implement many nationally significant projects of strategic importance for economic development, defence, and security nationwide. Therefore, functional bodies and units must proactively grasp relevant issues, especially those related to the management and use of defence land, in order to provide timely advice and recommendations to competent authorities, ensuring alignment with established guidelines and compliance with the law.
