The PM outlined Viet Nam’s achievements in refining socialist theory and its path toward socialism with three main pillars - building a socialist democracy, a socialist rule-of-law state, and a socialist-oriented market economy.

The Vietnamese leader also highlighted six key tasks related economy, foreign affairs, national defence and security, culture, social equity, and Party building; along with 12 groups of main tasks and solutions to realise the country’s development goals in the new era, plus three strategic breakthroughs.

The Chinese front leader shared with the Vietnamese Government leader recent theoretical innovations of the Communist Party of China (CPC) in integrating Marxism with the practice and outstanding cultural tradition, as well as its “four comprehensives” and “five in one” strategic layout, stressing the deep similarities between the two countries’ theoretical system of the path to socialism. He expressed a desire to enhance exchanges and share experience to support the cause of socialism building in each country.
