What do we know about Vietnam? While capitalist relations are actively developing in the world, this small country has managed to maintain a course towards building socialism. Surprisingly, this is bearing fruit: the standard of living of the population has increased significantly, tourism is actively developing, and the armed forces of the state are strong and reliable. Thanks to this, Vietnam pursues an independent foreign policy. Is the president of this country an appointed dictator or is he a real fighter for justice and equality? We will consider this and other questions in our article.
2016 appointment
In April 2016, the National Assembly voted by a majority for the new candidate (almost 92% of the vote), who led Vietnam. The country's president today is Chiang Dai Quang. Prior to that, he was the head of the Ministry of Public Security of Vietnam. The presence of a military education, a degree in law, as well as long-term service for the benefit of the people gave him the opportunity to take a senior position in the state.
To pursue a competent domestic and foreign policy, to head the Defense and Security Council, as well as to be the commander-in-chief of the armed forces - all these powers were assumed by the new president of Vietnam. 2016 marked the beginning of a course towards the complete renewal of the country, rapid economic growth, increasing the spiritual culture of society, protecting the socialist system and many other priority tasks. In his first interview with international media, Quang noted the special role of friendly partnerships with the Russian Federation. Recall that close state diplomatic relations have been supporting for more than 65 years.
Kuang was nominated to the National Assembly as a candidate by the previous president, Cheong Tan Shang. The continuity of this position is not in favor of the rights and freedoms of citizens. It seems that the Communist Party of Vietnam has totalitarian characteristics. In fact, there is not even a clear opposition government in the country: people are satisfied with the rule of the current parliament and president, and the growth of economic indicators and the well-being of the people only confirm this. So Chiang Dai Quang in his position is not against the will of society, but only for its good. The history of modern Vietnam has nothing to do with the past dictatorship.
Chiang Dai Quang: biography of the figure
Kuang became the tenth president of Vietnam. Initially, he chose a military career and relentlessly followed it. Since 1972, he studied at the school of the people's police at the Ministry of Internal Affairs. After that, he confidently advanced in the diplomatic service in this structure. The first serious post was assigned to him in 1996 - the head of the department of personal security. Having a great influence in the ministry, the title of lieutenant general and professor, Chiang Dai Quang was naturally recommended for the highest post that only Vietnam knows - the country's president.
Foreign policy
The first thing Vietnam needs is the president called international integration. What does this mean for the country? First of all, according to Quang, this is a contribution to the development of the Asia-Pacific region. This will allow the Vietnamese economy to reach a new level of development. Free trade agreements, global partnerships will strengthen peace and contribute to the country's prosperity.
Since 2015, Vietnam has been a ratified member of the Eurasian Economic Union. The heads of state signed an agreement on a free trade zone. This is especially true in the field of defense. Vietnam is a major customer of military equipment, equipment and weapons in the Russian Federation. And cultural cooperation every year shows an increase in the number of Russian tourists in the country - from 100 to 400 thousand people a year.
First President of Vietnam
Ton Duc Thang is the first leader of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam. He took office in 1976, after the unification of North and South Vietnam. This person is famous for his revolutionary activities, as a result of which we know this country as it is now.
Until the 21st century, the state went through a difficult path of formation, and now it confirms its status as a liberal republic with established diplomatic relations throughout the world. And this is a country with a special flavor and attractions that are attractive to tourists from all over the world!
