领导干部一定要注意讲政治，这是新形势下党中央反复强调的一个重大原则问题。国家安全机关的性质任务决定了国家安全机关的干部尤其是领导干部更要强调讲政治。国家安全机关是国家安全工作的主管机关，是人民民主专政的重要工具之一，是党和国家在隐蔽战线上从事对敌斗争的职 Leading cadres must pay attention to politics. This is a major issue of principle repeatedly emphasized by the party Central Committee under the new situation. The nature and tasks of the state security organs determine that the cadres of state security organs, especially the leading cadres, should emphasize politics even more. The national security organ is the competent authority for the work of national security and one of the important tools for the people’s democratic dictatorship. It is the duty of the party and the state to engage in hostile fighting on the hidden front.
