Under all circumstances, the Internal Political Security Force should remain the most loyal force to the Party, Fatherland, and People, firmly upholding the principle of ensuring the absolute, direct, and comprehensive leadership in all aspects by the Party, directly via the Central Public Security Party Committee and the leadership of the Ministry of Public Security, over internal political security work.

The force should enhance its contributions, promote social consensus, and consolidate public trust in the guidelines, policies, and laws of the Party and State, thereby contributing to the successful implementation of the Resolution of the 14th National Party Congress and other strategic resolutions of the Party. It is vital to build an Internal Political Security Force as a revolutionary, regular, elite, and modern force, standing as "The Most Disciplined, Most Loyal, and Closest to the People," to meet the requirements and duties of the new situation.
