In a lengthy article captioned 'Strengthen the core functions of party management and armed work' in the Chinese Journal of Social Sciences (December 2), Ren Long of the School of Political Science, National Defense University stressed the importance of the people's support to the army and said "Party and government leaders, especially the main leaders, must thoroughly study Xi Jinping’s thought on strengthening the army, earnestly study the original text, read the original works, understand the principles, fully recognize the political responsibility of the party’s armed work and the responsibility and mission of the "first secretary", and fully recognize the strengthening of national defense." He said "We must use the goal of strengthening the military to build consensus, soberly see that the world is not peaceful, and the Western hostile forces headed by the United States. The heart will not die. The containment, containment and launching of the "color revolution" has not stopped for a moment. Party committees and governments at all levels must be prepared for emergency response at any time." He also emphasised the need for cohesion and ''national defense education and guidance'.
