Vietnamese President Vo Van Thuong resigns after a little over a year in office.
His resignation has been accepted by the Vietnamese Communist Party due to violations that "left a bad mark" on the party's reputation.
Thuong is the second president to resign in two years amid an anti-corruption campaign.
The position of president in Vietnam is largely ceremonial, ranking third in the country's political hierarchy.
Thuong's departure underscores the impact of the anti-corruption drive led by Communist Party general secretary Nguyen Phu Trong.
