The 14th National Congress of the Communist Party of Viet Nam (CPV) is taking place at a time when the world is witnessing growing instability, yet the lessons drawn from Viet Nam’s struggle for independence and development remain a precious gem, both symbolically and in terms of revolutionary experience.
