| Resumen Latinoamericano (Argentina) newspaper publishes a press interview by Ambassador Ngo Minh Nguyet about the historical significance of the Dien Bien Phu victory. |
In the April 23 issue, Resumen Latinoamericano quoted Ambassador Ngo Minh Nguyet, saying that 70 years ago, after 56 days and nights of courageous, cunning and creative fighting, the Vietnamese army and people defeated the entire group of Dien Bien Phu strongholds, destroyed and captured all French troops, shot down 62 aircraft, captured 64 vehicles and all weapons, warehouses and military equipment of the French army.
Ambassador Ngo Minh Nguyet affirmed the leadership role of the Communist Party of Vietnam and President Ho Chi Minh in the Dien Bien Phu victory, saying that the Vietnamese people have received strong support and valuable help from socialist countries and oppressed peoples in Asia, Africa and Latin America.
Regarding the historical significance of the Dien Bien Phu victory, Ambassador Ngo Minh Nguyet emphasized that the Dien Bien Phu battle was the pinnacle of the resistance war against the French colonialists, creating the decisive basis for the signing of the Geneva Agreement on cessation of hostilities in Vietnam, opening a new revolutionary period, bringing North Vietnam to transition to socialism, serving as a solid foundation for the cause of the struggle to completely liberate the South and unify the country.
The Dien Bien Phu victory affirmed the correct and creative resistance policy of the Communist Party and the growth of the Vietnam People's Army, which was the basis for Vietnam to later defeat the American invaders for Southern liberation and national unification.
According to Ambassador Ngo Minh Nguyet, the Dien Bien Phu victory is a shining symbol in the national liberation movement, which overthrew old colonialism and opened a new page of history for humanity, contributing to changing the world situation.
On April 22, the page El Popular, the mouthpiece of the Uruguayan Communist Party, also published an interview with Ambassador Ngo Minh Nguyet, which affirmed that following the Dien Bien Phu victory in 1954, the Vietnamese people continued to write the brilliant epic in the Ho Chi Minh era, establishing glorious victories such as the aerial victory of Hanoi - Dien Bien Phu in 1972, the historic Ho Chi Minh Campaign in 1975, Southern liberation and national unification. The Vietnamese people continue to build socialism, firmly protecting independence, sovereignty and territorial integrity.
Ambassador Ngo Minh Nguyet emphasized that the 70th anniversary of the Dien Bien Phu Victory is an opportunity for the Vietnamese people to be more proud of the glorious Communist Party, of the great President Ho Chi Minh who led the Vietnamese revolution to overcome all hardships and gain victories. The historic Dien Bien Phu victory will forever be a source of pride and a source of great strength to encourage the Vietnamese people to develop a prosperous and happy country, striving to become a developed and high-income country in the mid-21st century./.
