Vietnam has marked 70 years since the end of a military campaign that led to the end of French colonial rule in Indochina. The battle in the country's northwestern hills lasted more than eight weeks starting March 13, 1954. Soldiers loyal to Vietnam's communist leader Ho Chi Minh targeted the largest French defence stronghold in Indochina, Dien Bien Phu, launching an anti-aircraft campaign that brought down 62 French warplanes. The 56-day campaign ended on May 7, a date many historians view as the start of the demise of European colonial power in Asia.

Thank you for helping us during the khmer rouge, not all of us are unforgiving. If it wasn't for you most of us wouldn't have been alive 🇰🇭❤️🇻🇳
although my family is comm8nist (khmer rouge) they respect the bravery of the americans and the stupidity of the americans. now they dont hate america (still hate the french tho)
Love you too❤ from Vietnam,
+ viet nam ❤ Cambodia
Then we should thank china from stopping Vietnam from extending further
Listen to this dude licking Vietnam 💩, he’s not Khmer lol
He’s some Vietnamese creating a fake page
Poor Cambodian got tricked by the vietnamese
Think about this: when the whole world was done with a major war in 1945, the Vietnamese kept on fighting for another 30 years with the French, the U.S. and the Chinese. Some may expect to find a nation soaked in bitter memory when they visit there. Wrong. I saw the the most beautiful smiles there.
The Vietnam/China conflict lasted just a few weeks. Prior to that, China supported Vietnam in its fight against the French and the US.

I visited Vietnam last month. Perhaps, the best the country I have ever been to. Whole of developing countries of Asia need to look up to Vietnam of how it rose from ashes to become one of the fastest developing countries in the continent.
As a Vietnamese, I am glad to hear that. If you have chances, let's have a trip to Vietnam once again. We're always welcomed you guys!
As indonesian i hope my government can stabilize the politic and reduce corruption like vietnam

The Vietnamese struggle is an inspiration to all of us who believe in freedom from colonialism and imperialism. 🇻🇳
Vietnam's freedom based on autocracy is not a freedom. Real freedom lies in the universal values like democracy.
For the record: If Vietnam stayed longer in the French sphere, it will get democratized, liberalised and federalized by the French Democracy and the European Union.
Vietnam would also get an EU-membership including billions of EU-money to build up the Vietnamese nation. It was also the poor Ireland (EU) that became wealthy when it gets EU-cash from Brussel. And France will apologize and pay its fine for its imperialistic crimes against Vietnam by paying reparation cost to the Vietnamese country. It's a Win-Win.

My great grandparents died after a random artillery strike of French force. The older brother of my grandfather perished in a battle against French aggressor in Quang Ninh, his body was never found.
I still remember all of these losses as a part of the collective wound of the Vietnamese people. But I don't have any specific hatred on French , American or Chinese citizens. I even feel sorry for the perished French soldiers and their families who lost their son on this faraway battlefield. To any foreigner: come here with your opened mind and we will welcome all of you for visiting, for business and so on. The war is over. The future of our friendship lays in our hands.

A country that was invaded by their ultranationalist neighbor and its citizens was suppressed heavily by the occupying force, having a gut to reclaim their colony to do things what their occupier did to their citizens. I thought they learned their lesson that being a subject of other nation is depressing.
After all of those hardships they endured, Vietnam deserved its peace, prosperity, and happiness.
Congratulations Vietnam
People forget Vietnamese also defeated Gengis Khan's Mongol horde.

The vietnamese are an example to follow. Vietnam has always resisted powerful armies and invaders and have managed to free their land without help from foreign armies. Honorable people the Vietnamese.
Viet congs received immense aid and support from China as well as the Soviet Union
@@josephwu3136 as well ấ the south
we needed helps, and received a lot from other friendly countries, that is true, but just the weapons and support on using it, our people fought ourself for our freedom, our ancestors did not afraid to sacrify for freedom, that the key factor
@@josephwu3136 No one can't stand alone, and no country can't stand alone too. You see Ukraine or Russia, or Nato, they all need help from others, and Vietnamese too. The Viet Minh received help from China with weapons, military supplies and advice and we always remembered that, but we were always aware that to win true freedom we had to fight ourselves, not can rely on outsiders. That is why we refused China to send troops to fight with us.

We should have allowed any S. Vietnamese to immigrate to the U.S. after the fall of Saigon. That would have been the true sign of a real ally after a war is over or lost. To leave all those S. Vietnamese behind who wanted to come to the U.S. was the most humiliating and defeated feeling I’ve ever had as an American. The real sacrifices made as Americans for our S. Vietnamese allies was hardly ever made. I was 17 years old in high school and watched footage of those choppers leave the Vietnamese behind. I knew in that second in my young heart I was lied to.
My Arrière-grandpère was one of the last soldiers with the French foreign legion to leave Dien bien Phu l saw his pictures with Vietnamese school children who we helped come to France

The french did build a lot beautiful buildings in vietnam and started the modernization of vietnamese education and infrastructure , but they also treated the vietnamese badly
The way french treat their vietnamese subjects kinda remind me of the way the dutch treated the indigenous indonesian
They thought they would never got kicked out so they built those things to serve themselves and exploit Vietnam. Under their rule, 98% of Vietnamese were illiterate and wouldn't live past 40 years old. So I'm not sure if you can count any of those as positive things they did. Whatever they bult is nothing compare to what they had robbed Vietnam for many decades.
Ồ vậy là như bạn nói thì ta nên cảm ơn kẻ hiếp dâm vì đã cho ta 1 cậu con trai khỏe mạnh
test First, the French didn't think one day they would be kicked out of Vietnam so they built those 'beautiful buildings' and infrastructure for themselves to stay and exploit Vietnam. They didn't build anything for the Vietnamese. They robbed Vietnam blind for decades of natural resources and labor and you think those 'beautiful buildings' worth mentioning?! Under the French, 98% of Vietnamese were illiterate, so education and everything else were worse under them. If they did build things for Vietnam and educate her people, how could you say they treated them badly? You're contradicting yourself here!
@@diehardcatyes finally. In Algeria people say the same. However the question is who did they build it for? The pied noirs or the Arabs. And looking at tennantship all were owned by the pied noirs.

the beginning of the end of European colonialism wasn’t in Indochina, but in the Dutch East Indies. When Indonesia became independent, that started it all.

What is the date of when China was defeated after invading Vietnam in 1979??
China was never defeated. Mao Zedong withdrew his troops after seeing how easy it was to invade Vietnam. The invasion of Vietnam wasn’t to provoke or threaten the sovereignty of Vietnam but it was primarily a show of force on display for Vietnam to know chinas support for the Khmer Rouge. Mao wanted to put pressure on the Vietnamese to let them know to fall back on the engagement with the Khmer Rouge. Neither Vietnam or China had actual beef but more like a big brother offering his constructive role.
@@josephwu3136it's safe to say China was defeated. For these reasons :
1. China said it could occupy Hanoi in a week, but has never been able to make it.
2. China wanted Vietnam to withdraw from Cambodia, but Vietnam hadn't until 1989.
3. China wanted Vietnam to know who was the real communist leader, but Vietnam was still pro-Soviet Union until its collapse. Even now, Vietnamese history textbook still praise Soviet a lot.
4. Vietnamese history textbook teach about the 1979 war, but China has no line for it, because Chinese know they were defeated.
So none of China's aims were realized, so we can easily tell who was the loser now. I don't think Vietnam won, given that Vietnam got nothing from the war, but clearly China lost.
@@josephwu3136 Are you talking about Deng Xiaoping? because Mao Zedong died in 1976 and the war began in 1979 =)) please research carefully before giving your opinion :D
What is your point? Big bag China got defeated by Vietnam? Is that what you wanna proudly go around saying? If that’s what your heart desires then go do so. Tell the world how Vietnam defeated China. Will that bring us unity or only division? Are China and Vietnam not comrades in arms and socialist brothers? The Vietnamese have defeated invaders but will never defeat China. It will take a little more than just some battles to defeated China. We are a huge nation with a huge population.

Hello to the Sinophobic bot farm “Lastetc", "lastetc", "verylastetc", "nextlastetc" bot for me
Idiot, border dispute only and it wasnt an all out war. Vietnam was devastated and sanctioned by USA straight after the US- VN war. If China really wanted to invade and annexed VN they wouldn't help VN to fight USA and wait till both of them exhausted and jumped in to take over VN at the right time and moment. Russia and China respect Vietnam independence and sovereignty, they never dictate VN foreign policy or tell VN who they can trade with or not. Unlike USA that goes around tell everyone who the can trade with or not and sanction everyone, now see USA? It not working well for USA now, is it?

Quel dommage cette triste fin. Je n'ai pas connu un Français ayant habité au Vietnam qui n'ait pas aimé le Vietnam et les Vietnamiens.
they took all our nation's resource, treasures, killed our ancestors as slaves and burried them on the rubber plantations, all we did was taking back our freedom, our right for self determination, and all the basic rights. love? but as friends then there'll be no problem, dont mess with us
And it all started on Nov. 23, 1946 when France sent a fleet of French warships to Vietnam and bombardment on the city called Haiphong, Vietnam. Killing 6,000 innocent local Vietnamese and anger an entire country. France needed resources to help rebuild their country from the devastation of WWII and to feed millions of their hungry French peoples. So France government decided to take those resources from all their colony by force and the United States President Truman allows them to do so. There goes America so called Democracy

So the French surrender day at Dien Bien Phu is just 1 day after the 8th anniversary of the VE Day of WWII…..

The French were thinking that they will go to Vietnam and after defeating them in few weeks will be relaxing on the beaches; They underestimate our Asian humility as for weakness and soon the invaders had to eat humble pie. 🇮🇳
It only took being under French Rule for Decades to finally gain independence. Vive La France 🇨🇵
Le récit de la guerre d'Indochine est un peu rapide quand on sait que le rapport de force s'est nettement inversé pendant le conflit, passant de 6 Français contre 1 vietminh en 1946 à 1 Français contre 3 en 1954. L'aide chinoise et soviétique a seule permis la victoire communiste au même titre qu'une aide américaine aurait permis une victoire française.
Petit point technique important pour l'image de l'Armee française: le 7 mai 1954, les troupes françaises ne se sont pas rendues, aucun drapeau blanc n'a été levé, aucun cessez le feu n'a été signé. Les soldats communistes ont simplement envahi le camp que les Français avaient choisi de ne plus défendre. C'est une défaite certes, mais pas une capitulation ni une reddition.
Here is your copium.
De Castries ordered his man to not surrender but let the Viet Minh capture them. In practice, this is no difference from a surrender. A defeated army can still retreat, but not in DBP, where the whole army was captured, even De Castries and his staff were captured.

Ukraine is fighting for its independence from Russia. Before 2014, putin said crimea belonged to Ukraine and Ukraine was a nation, now they are saying Ukraine shouldn't have even existed to begin with.
@@Waffwaff-8262 so?
@peapercola9481 he's implying that Russia is fighting for its independence from Ukraine/ the west, when as someone else said one they haven't send the FFL, nor their or troops, and two Russia isn't fighting for its right to live as a nation.

This was a totsally absurd war, France should've let them go. Their arrogance sometimes puzzles me, given that they were literally broken after FOUR(!) years of enemy occupation, months of bitter fights on their national territory....and they start another colonial war?
At least UK let their colonies gaining indipendence (& won aginst the reds in Malysia!)
Important agreements that Vietnam 🇻🇳 *refused to sign* with China when Xi Jinping visited Vietnam were:
- Common Destiny with China,
- Teamimg with China against the US, and
- Vietnam's rare earth to be processed in China.
It's the Sinophobic bot farm “Lastetc", "lastetc", "verylastetc", "nextlastetc" bot.
Is that why vietnam elevated China/Vietnam relations to its highest level, higher than that of any other country? And is that also why China/Vietnam concluded maritime patrols last week? Please don’t spread misinformation Singh Prajeet.
@@josephwu3136he is a bit troll. We chinese know how close we and vietnames people are, yes some vietnames still don't like us because of the war but that nothing it's called brotherly love
@@josephwu3136It means nothing! The US is the same level. But Vietnamese consider China as an enemy, not even a friend.
@@user-uy9zm8sf2yLove? Is that why China is taking Vietnamese sea and islands?

Northern Belonging Period.That is, the period when Vietnam was part of China, beginning with the Qin general Zhao Tuo's pacification of the Baiyue and establishment of the state of Nan Yue in present-day Panyu, Guangdong Province, in 204 B.C., and ending with the establishment of the independent Wu Dynasty in 938 A.D., when Vietnamese Ngo Quang defeated the forces of the Southern Han Dynasty during the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms.
Period of independent statehood.From 938 until the full French colonization of Vietnam in 1884, Vietnam was essentially an independent state and remained a vassal state of successive Chinese dynasties, with a 20-year period during which the Ming Dynasty placed Vietnam under direct centralized rule.
Throughout the entire period of the Northern Belongings and Independent States, which lasted for more than 2,000 years.Vietnam has been under the direct or indirect influence of Chinese culture, constantly learning and following it.Chinese clothes were worn, Chinese characters were written, Confucian texts were read, and examinations were taken.It can be said that Chinese culture has built most of Vietnam's history.
The de-Chinaization of Vietnam is all-encompassing and touches every aspect of life.And the two most central ones are.The first is the erasure of all traces of Chinese characters, ensuring that Vietnam is in reality far removed from China; the second is the reinterpretation of history, severing the historical cultural ties with China.
In the eyes of the Chinese, during the period of North-South Vietnam, China brought to the region advanced agricultural production techniques, a whole system of state building, social norms centered on Confucianism, and created a splendid history.In the narrative of the National Museum of History, this is not considered worth mentioning, and what needs to be mentioned is a chart of "Resistance to Invaders".Resistance to the Eastern Han, resistance to the two Jin dynasties, resistance to the Southern Dynasties, resistance to the Tang army, and so on.These historical events, which in Chinese historical records are defined as "local civil commotion" or "rebellion", are all regarded here as acts of "resistance to foreign invaders".
This strong anti-North sentiment is full of contradictions.In fact, during the time when the Mongol Yuan and Manchu Qing Dynasty dominated the Central Plains, the documents of the Vietnamese Dynasty used to refer to the rulers of the North as "Mongol Tartars" and "Qing barbarians", while claiming to be the "Chinese Orthodoxy".It was not outside the Chinese cultural circle.
