Grasp the main contradictions and clarify the central task —— *** ■ commentator of PLA Daily *** *** The main contradiction determines the main task. The change of the main social contradictions is a historic change related to the overall situation and an important basis for formulating the major policies and long-term strategies of the party and the state. For a long time, our party has revealed the main social contradictions through numerous and complex social phenomena, analyzed and grasped the phased characteristics of social development, so as to formulate the correct political line and determine the correct historical tasks and work priorities. To successfully promote the cause of the party and the state, we must correctly grasp the main social contradictions and central tasks, and put forward new ideas, new strategies and new measures. In the face of complex situations, complex contradictions and heavy tasks, it is difficult to do a good job without primary and secondary, without distinction, eyebrows and beards. The Centennial struggle of the party tells us that whether the cause of the party and the people can move in the right direction depends on whether we can accurately understand and grasp the main social contradictions and determine the central task. When the main social contradictions and central tasks are accurately judged, the cause of the party and the people will develop smoothly, otherwise the cause of the party and the people will suffer setbacks. The change of the main social contradictions in China is an important sign that socialism with Chinese characteristics has entered a new era. The resolution of the CPC Central Committee on the major achievements and historical experience of the party's Centennial struggle points out that, "The main contradiction in China's society in the new era is the contradiction between the people's growing needs for a better life and unbalanced and insufficient development. We must adhere to the people-centered development thought, develop people's democracy in the whole process, and promote people's all-round development and common prosperity for all people to make more obvious substantive progress.". *** Tackling tough problems has solved many difficult problems that have long wanted to be solved but have not been solved, and many major events that have wanted to be done but have not been done in the past have been accomplished. An important magic weapon for the historic achievements and changes in the cause of the party, the state and the army is that our party correctly grasps the main social contradictions and central tasks, and formulates the correct political line and strategic strategies on this basis. "Ten trees hold a house of great importance, and five inch keys make a closed door." Only by grasping the main contradictions can we grasp the key problems, and only by promoting the central task can we drive all-round development. Taking the road of building a strong army with Chinese characteristics on the new journey is a long-term and arduous systematic project, involving different fields, all aspects and multiple links. It is also necessary to grasp the main contradictions and clarify the central task. *** *** Run out of the acceleration of striving to build a strong army in the new era and provide strategic support for the realization of the second Centennial goal and the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. Comrade Mao Zedong pointed out: "when studying any process, if it is a complex process with more than two contradictions, we should try our best to find out its main contradiction. If we catch this main contradiction, all problems will be solved easily." Grasping the main contradictions and the central task is not only the requirement of materialist dialectics, but also an important methodology consistently advocated and adhered to by the leading cadres of our army. At present, our army is in a period of in-depth promotion of reform, reconstruction and transformation, facing many opportunities and complex contradictions. These contradictions are problems in development and cannot be avoided or bypassed. Leading cadres should have an overall view, enhance problem awareness, adhere to problem orientation, and be clear about various contradictions. At the same time, they should also speak well of the "two points theory" and "key points theory", give priority to solving the main contradictions and main aspects of contradictions closely around the main contradictions and central tasks, so as to drive the solution of other contradictions and achieve key breakthroughs in the overall promotion, We will use key breakthroughs to drive the overall leap in the level of national defense and military construction, and constantly push forward the cause of building a strong military in the new era.
