According to Associate Professor Petr Tsvetov, General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong is an excellent leader of the Communist Party of Vietnam and the State of Vietnam. He is the person who created the theoretical basis to build a new "Socialism" in Vietnam in the 21st century.

He raised and developed important issues such as the role of the Communist Party in the modern Vietnamese state, guidelines and methods for building a rule-of-law state, the nature of democracy in Vietnam, and the differences between it with democracy in Western countries, the role of the state in the period of market reform. He also introduced the concept of "bamboo diplomacy."

The results of General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong's theoretical research have become the basis for the practical achievements of communists and the Vietnamese people in our time.

First Vice Chairman of the Russia-Vietnam Friendship Association Petr Tsvetov said that Vietnam's successes in socio-economic development and strengthening its position on the world stage are closely linked to Nguyen Phu Trong's activities in his position as General Secretary of the Communist Party of Vietnam (CPV) Central Committee.

General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong is a steadfast fighter for peace and friendship between peoples. He made efforts to develop Vietnam's foreign affairs according to the "more friends, less enemies" principle.

Under the leadership of General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong, Vietnam has established comprehensive strategic partnerships with seven countries, including countries with different political orientations such as Russia, China and the United States. General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong met with leaders of these countries, strengthening partnership and mutual understanding.

Associate Professor Petr Tsvetov also mentioned Nguyen Phu Trong's contribution to developing relations between Russia and Vietnam.

In 2018, General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong attended the 60th Anniversary of the establishment of the Russia-Vietnam Friendship Association.
