Party Central Committee agrees to let Vuong Dinh Hue cease holding positions

Vuong Dinh Hue is a key leader of the Party and State, received fundamental training, grew up from the grassroots and was assigned to hold many important leadership positions of the Party and the State. However, recent reports from the CPV Central Committee’s Inspection Commission and competent agencies showed that Hue has violated regulations on what Party members must not do, and regulations concerning the responsibility to set an example of officials and Party members, firstly members of the Political Bureau, the CPV Central Committee's Secretariat, and the CPV Central Committee; and bears the responsibility of the head in line with the Party's regulations and the State's laws.

His violations and shortcomings have sparked negative public opinions and affected the prestige of the Party and the State, as well as his own reputation. Fully being aware of his responsibilities before the Party, the State and the people, Hue submitted an application to cease holding the assigned positions and to stop working.

In pursuant to the current regulations of the Party and the State, and in consideration of Vuong Dinh Hue’s wish, the Party Central Committee consented to let Vuong Dinh Hue cease holding the positions of Politburo member, member of the 13th CPV Central Committee, and Chairman of the 15th National Assembly for the 2021-2026 tenure.
