The Dien Bien Phu Victory became a pride of Vietnamese people and a symbol of national strength. It also played a decisive role in ending Vietnam’s resistance war against French colonialists, ushering in the collapse of the old colonialism and marking a new development step of both Vietnam's revolution and the struggle for peace, national independence, democracy and socialism in the world.
Historic Dien Bien Phu victory contributed to the common struggle of the world’s people for peace and social progress. It has encouraged and inspired colonized countries in Asia, Africa and Latin America to stand up for self-liberation struggle and escaping from invasions by colonialism and imperialism.
The 60th anniversary of the Dien Bien Phu victory is a national event of great significance for our country. On this special occasion, we would like to express our sincere thanks to people and women from different countries for their support extended to Vietnamese people in general, women in particular during the wars, contributing to make the Dien Bien Phu victory in 1954 and the reunification of our country in 1975 possible. The Vietnam Women’s Union would like to call on people and women in the world, especially WIDF’s members to provide your further support to and keep solidarity with Vietnamese people and women in our cause of protecting the national sovereignty as well as sustainable socio-economic development.
VIVA VIETNAM, VIVA PRESIDENT HO CHI MINH,
VIVA GENERAL VO NGUYEN GIAP!
