Party leader Nguyen Phu Trong expressed his hope that the diplomats would help promote the Party guidelines for a foreign policy of independence, self-reliance, diversification, multi-lateralization, and being a friend, a reliable partner, and a responsible member in the international community. Party leader Nguyen Phu Trong said:“It is necessary to inform Vietnamese leaders about information from overseas. The diplomats need to command, update information and forecast the situation as well as propose solutions. The diplomats also need to contribute to promoting the image of Vietnam, its land, people, and culture as well as explain Party guidelines and state policies overseas, especially regarding the complications in the East Sea and call on overseas Vietnamese to support the homeland”.
