	Enhancing National Standing: Strength Drawn from Independent, Self-reliant, and Distinctive Foreign Policy

The visit aimed to introduce international journalists and overseas Vietnamese to the nation’s long-standing history, patriotism, and spirit of independence and self-reliance, as well as its unique military art forged over thousands of years of nation-building and national defense. Through direct visits to heritage sites associated with glorious victories on the Bach Dang River and across the Northeast region, reporters had the opportunity to gain deeper insights into key milestones in the Vietnamese people’s struggle to safeguard the Fatherland.
