![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/4a/Nguyen_Phu_Trong_%26_Vladimir_Putin.jpg/220px-Nguyen_Phu_Trong_%26_Vladimir_Putin.jpg)

In his second term, Trọng launched a large anti-corruption campaign, with the Politburo taking disciplinary actions against 110 senior Party members between 2017 and 2020, including three Politburo members, one former Politburo member, 10 Central Committee members and 17 former Central Committee members. Some of the disciplinary actions included criminal charges.[12]
Anti-corruption campaign
Since being reelected as General Secretary in 2016, Nguyen Phu Trong has launched a large-scale campaign against corruption. The campaign has resulted in thousands of high-ranking officials being disciplined, imprisoned, and forced to resign from positions in the government, including the president Nguyễn Xuân Phúc, who resigned after several of his subordinates were involved in corruption scandals.[22] He compared this campaign to "burning a furnace" ("đốt lò"), hence the name Dot lo campaign. The campaign is considered by observers to be an effort by the Party to regain power and prestige as well as strengthen people's trust in the government and the Party's leadership.[23] Especially during his third term, Trọng's government has handled many notable corruption cases, such as Việt Á scandal and the 304 trillion dong Van Thinh Phat Holdings Group case.[24][25]

On 31 January 2021, Nguyễn Phú Trọng was re-elected as General Secretary for a third term by the 1st Plenary Session of the 13th Central Committee, making him the first leader since Lê Duẩn (1969-1986) to serve more than two terms.[21][36] On 1 February 2021, Nguyễn Phú Trọng attended a press conference. Nguyễn Phú Trọng said:
I am not in great health [...] I am old and I want to rest, but the Congress has elected me so I will comply with my duty to serve as a party member.[37]
Trọng was the third person to be elected as CPV general secretary for a third term, with the others being Hồ Chí Minh and Lê Duẩn.
The National Assembly on 2 April 2021 voted to relieve Nguyễn Phú Trọng's presidency with 91.25% of the vote. Nguyễn Phú Trọng remains de facto top leader in the country, serving as the General Secretary of the Communist Party.[38] He was succeeded by Nguyễn Xuân Phúc.
In 2022, between October 30 and November 2, Trọng visited China and met Chinese Communist Party (CCP) general secretary Xi Jinping, becoming the first foreign leader to meet Xi after he secured a third term in the 20th CCP National Congress.[39] Both leaders released a joint statement, calling for cooperation in economic, political, defense and security areas and working together in “the fight against terrorism, ‘peaceful evolution’, ‘colour revolution’ and the politicisation of human rights issues”.[39]
In January 2023, Phúc resigned from the presidency due to corruption scandals, leading Trọng's ally Võ Văn Thưởng to succeed him in March.[40]
When the Russo-Ukrainian War broke out, Vietnam maintained a neutral stance. Vietnam has abstained from voting at most United Nations voting sessions.[41][42] From 21 to 23 May 2023, the deputy chairman of Russia's Security Council, and former president and prime minister, Dmitry Medvedev, visited Vietnam and met with Trọng. They discussed the strengthening of ties between Russia and Vietnam and the current international situation.[43]

On 19 June 2024, Russian President Vladimir Putin visited Vietnam and met with Nguyễn Phú Trọng.[46] Putin thanked Vietnam for its "balanced position" on Russia's invasion of Ukraine.[47]
Political positions
Ideologically, Trọng is considered to be coming from the more conservative Marxist–Leninist faction within the CPV.[48] He has long railed against some party members' loss of "Marxist–Leninist virtue".[49] Trọng has stated that "a country without discipline would be chaotic and unstable [...]. [W]e need to balance democracy and law and order"[50]
