高质量推进国防和军队现代化新华社评论员强国必须强军，军强才能国安。中共中央政治局日前就高质量推进国防和军队现代化进行第二十七次集体学习。习近平总书记主持学习并发表重要讲话，总结我们党强军兴军的伟大实践经验，就“十五五”时期强化政治引领，深化创新发展，高质量推进国防和军队现代化提出明确要求、作出重要部署，为如期实现建军一百年奋斗目标，推动基本实现国防和军队现代化取得决定性进展指明了前进方向，提供了根本遵循。高质量推进国防和军队现代化，是推进中国式现代化的应有之义。党的十八大以来，以习近平同志为核心的党中央统筹中华民族伟大复兴战略全局和世界百年未有之大变局，把强军兴军摆在党和国家事业的突出位置，毫不动摇坚持和加强党对军队的绝对领导，鲜明提出党在新时代的强军目标，谋划实施国防和军队现代化新“三步走”战略，全面推进政治建军、改革强军、科技强军、人才强军、依法治军，边斗争、边备战、边建设，我军现代化水平和实战能力显著提升，强军事业取得历史性成就、发生历史性变革。政治建军是人民军队立军之本，关乎国防和军队现代化建设方向和底色。政治建军解决军队“举什么旗”“走什么路”“听谁指挥”“为谁打仗”等根本问题，关系党和军队事业全局，关系人民军队前途命运，关系强军事业成败。要坚持好、运用好、发展好政治建军这个重要法宝，毫不动摇坚持和加强党对军队绝对领导，全面落实新时代政治建军方略，加强理论武装，深化思想整风，打牢官兵听党话、跟党走的思想根基，确保枪杆子永远听党指挥。军中绝不能有腐败分子藏身之地。要深入推进反腐败斗争，健全重大项目监管体系，立起从严监管硬规矩，紧盯资金流向、权力运行和质量管控等关键环节，强化军地融合监督，确保在监管前提下搞建设，确保各项建设质量托底、能力托底、廉洁托底。习近平总书记深刻指出：“军队是要准备打仗的，一切工作都必须坚持战斗力标准，向能打仗、打胜仗聚焦。”高质量推进国防和军队现代化，根本指向和检验标准始终是战斗力。要紧盯科技之变、战争之变、对手之变，打造新质生产力和新质战斗力增长极，牢牢牵住科技创新这个“牛鼻子”，加强无人智能技术军事应用，深化网络信息体系建设运用，逐步构建智能化军事体系。体系作战是未来战争的主要作战形态，要加强作战能力体系集成，高质量推动体系作战能力加速提升，搞好实战化检验评估，扎实推进练兵备战，有效捍卫国家主权、安全、发展利益。巩固提高一体化国家战略体系和能力，是高质量推进国防和军队现代化的必由之路。党的二十届四中全会指出，要加快先进战斗力建设，推进军事治理现代化，巩固提高一体化国家战略体系和能力。“十五五”规划纲要对巩固提高一体化国家战略体系和能力作出战略部署。要加强军事治理，结合落实跨军地改革任务，优化体制机制，完善政策制度，形成各司其职、紧密协作、规范有序的跨军地工作格局。“军民团结如一人，试看天下谁能敌。”中央和国家机关有关部门、地方党委和政府要大力支持国防和军队建设，在全社会营造关心国防、热爱国防、建设国防、保卫国防的浓厚氛围。战鼓催征马蹄疾，砥砺奋进正当时。新征程上，让我们更加紧密团结在以习近平同志为核心的党中央周围，坚持以习近平新时代中国特色社会主义思想为指导，深入贯彻习近平强军思想，牢记职责使命，振奋革命精神，凝聚奋进力量，全力以赴打好实现建军一百年奋斗目标攻坚战，加快把人民军队建成世界一流军队，为以中国式现代化全面推进强国建设、民族复兴伟业提供坚强战略支撑。（新华社北京7月31日电）

Summary

Machine summary

The Politburo held its 27th collective study session on July 31, focused on national defense and military modernization during the upcoming 15th Five-Year Plan period, with Xi Jinping presiding and setting priorities around political army-building (政治建军), intelligentized systems (智能化军事体系), and cross-military-civilian reform (跨军地改革任务). The commentary's extended treatment of anti-corruption — specifically calling for oversight of funds, power, and quality control in major projects — documents continued institutional anxiety about procurement and construction integrity following the 2023–2024 purges of Rocket Force and CMC Equipment Development Department leadership. The framing of the 15th Five-Year Plan as the decisive window for meeting the 2027 centenary army-building goal (建军一百年奋斗目标) is standard political work content; its value is as a record of how the institution is calibrating urgency and legitimacy for the next planning cycle.
