The 14th National Party Congress has not only drawn close attention from the Vietnamese people at home but also garnered strong interest from international observers and friends.
The success of the National Party Congress has further strengthened public trust, including that of overseas Vietnamese, in the Party's and the State’s firm leadership, clear strategic orientation, and the country’s long-term development prospects.
The report at the 14th National Congress of the Communist Party of Việt Nam clearly outlined Việt Nam's breakthrough development goals for 2026-30: becoming an upper middle-income country with a modern industrial base by 2030 and a developed, high-income country by 2045.
The Communist Party of Việt Nam now faces a new historic mission: guiding the country into what has been termed “the era of the nation's rise,” and realising the aspiration for a strong, prosperous and happy Việt Nam.
The year 2026 will be pivotal in determining whether the country can strengthen its role as a regional production and financial hub or risk prolonged stagnation.
Việt Nam has risen from a poor, low-income nation to a middle-income country, while maintaining high GDP growth rates over many decades, among the leading performers in the region, significantly improving living standards.
The 14th National Congress successfully integrates the practical experience of socialism construction in Việt Nam with the Party's leadership theory, highlighting both reform and leadership characteristics, said Chinese Professor Xu Liping.
The Communist Party of Việt Nam's proactive updating of its thinking, embrace of modern technologies, and adoption of new governance approaches within a socialist framework would enhance the realism and vitality of Việt Nam’s development path, according to Indian Professor G. Devarajan.
Reflecting on reforms and transformations over the past year, Columbia University scholar Nguyễn Thị Liên Hằng described them as a genuine 'Vietnamese miracle' and voiced her hope that this series of successes will continue into the future.
While praising the strong direction from the Party leadership, renowned Vietnamese-French Professor Trần Thanh Vân stressed that trust can only endure when translated into concrete action.
For the international community, the successful organisation of the Congress sends a positive signal, underscoring Việt Nam’s political stability, according to Malaysian researcher Enzo Sim Hong Jun.

Vincent Boulet, head of external relations of the French Communist Party stressed that theoretical cooperation between the PCF and the CPV plays an important role in identifying requirements and shaping the content of a new model of international cooperation among communist parties.
Over the past eight decades, particularly in recent years, diplomacy has made significant contributions to national development.
Việt Nam’s foreign policy of independence, self-reliance, and proactive multilateral diplomacy represents one of the most principled and respected models in contemporary international relations.
The Party’s mettle has been demonstrated through its capacity to overcome major challenges such as the COVID-19 pandemic and an increasingly complex and unpredictable global economic environment.
According to Milan Krajca, Chairman of the Czech Peace Movement and a member of the Communist Party of Bohemia and Moravia, Việt Nam stands before an open future with great potential. He stressed that the documents and resolutions adopted at the Congress will mark a significant step forward in building Việt Naminto an advanced socialist country, laying solid foundations for a better future for its people.
