The leader lauded the academy for its role in offering strategic advice to the Party and State regarding national defence and security, and army building, as well as in socio-economic and cultural development.
He emphasised high requirements in national construction and defence in the present regional and world situation, and urged the academy to enhance research and training quality in order to create a breakthrough in human resources development for the armed forces.
He also asked the academy to step up research in military and defence science, and promote defence diplomacy and international cooperation.
