Vietnam’s Communist Party chief Lam seeks presidency in China-style expanded power mandate

Next week some 1,600 delegates will gather in Hanoi to kick off a week-long Communist Party congress, held every five years to select new leaders and set policy goals for the single-party state. Two said Lam won support for his bid, while the third said the conclusion was unclear. In any case, the final decision rests with delegates who will be elected at the congress. The party’s secretariat did not immediately reply to a request for comment. The combination of the two top jobs for the next five years would mark a significant departure from Vietnam’s traditional power-sharing model. Only in exceptional periods after the death of incumbents have the positions been merged, including in 2024 when Lam held both positions for about three months. 🔗 Leggi su Internazionale.it
