Hanoi – In a recent statement, the Commander of the Vietnam People's Air Force underscored a firm commitment to protecting national sovereignty and territorial integrity against any acts of aggression. The reaffirmation comes amid a complex regional situation that demands the air force maintain a high state of combat readiness.
The commander urged all units to heighten vigilance, tighten discipline, and intensify training and exercises to meet mission requirements in all scenarios. The air force will continue to coordinate closely with other military branches to build comprehensive strength in safeguarding the nation's skies.
This commitment once again affirms Vietnam's defense policy of people's warfare and all-people national defense, along with the spirit of decisive and victorious combat of the People's Army. The commander also expressed confidence in the Party's leadership, public support, and the ability of officers and soldiers to master modern weapons and equipment.
Analysts suggest the statement responds to recent developments in the East Sea (South China Sea), where military activities by some countries have raised security concerns. The resolute stance of the air force is seen as a clear message that Vietnam will not tolerate any violation of its sovereignty.
