He made outstanding contributions to Vietnam’s development in terms of Party building and rectification, and the fight against corruption, Lamoudi said, noting the late leader always demonstrated the message of peace and harmony between all peoples, and conducted a truly resolute fight against injustice and neo-colonialism, and resolutely backed justice.

With his respectable modesty, the General Secretary left valuable lessons for many nations around the world and he will always be remembered by everyone, Lamoudi affirmed.
The official noted that the FLN always pays attention to developing and promoting the traditional friendship, fraternity, and solidarity with the Vietnamese people and the CPV.

Under the General Secretary’s leadership, the CPV led the country to remarkable socio-economic achievements, Djouadj continue, calling Vietnam a model of sustainable development amidst difficulties and complexities.
He held that the Party chief made a great devotion to building a culture imbued with national identity, which is seen as a true spiritual foundation of the society, an intrinsic strength, and an impulse for national development.
Lauding the “bamboo diplomacy” policy initiated by the leader, he said Vietnam has set up extensive cooperation with countries and expanded the network of partners, and that the policy has helped the country reap economic achievements, with the fastest growth rate in Southeast Asia, and enjoy an advanced position in the international arena.
The Party chief also set a shining example of studying and following President Ho Chi Minh’s ideology, morality, and lifestyle, Djouadj said, praising the General Secretary’s steel-like spirit and will to overcome hardship.
