On April 26, the Central Committee convened an extraordinary meeting and agreed to allow Mr. Vuong Dinh Hue to resign as a member of the Politburo, a member of the 13th Party Central Committee and Chairman of the 15th National Assembly, according to his personal request.
As a key leader of the Party and state, Mr. Hue “was trained and matured from the grassroots level”. However, according to a report from the Central Inspection Committee, he has violated three regulations of the Party: what party members are not allowed to do, regulations on exemplary responsibilities and responsibilities of a leader.
This “has caused a bad reputation, affecting the prestige of the Party, the state and the individual”. Mr. Hue has submitted a request to resign from his positions and retire from work.
