135th Birthday of President Ho Chi Minh: Scholars and friends...

According to French historian Pierre Journoud, "President Ho Chi Minh holds a great position in the history of national and colonial liberation in the 20th century. Looking at his journey, with 30 years of traveling abroad to absorb the cultures of many countries and different cultures, especially the access to the political culture that allowed him to later fight against colonial domination, it can be seen that it was a truly amazing journey. With that luggage, he returned to the country secretly in 1941, during the early period of World War II, to organize resistance forces to fight against French colonialism and realize the great dream: to gain independence and unification for Vietnam". Historian Pierre Journoud believes that President Ho Chi Minh's position in the 20th century, especially in the national liberation movement, is extremely important.

Also admiring President Ho Chi Minh , French historian Alain Ruscio shared: "I think that the way President Ho Chi Minh bonded with his people was almost unique in human history, or at least extremely rare. There was a real bond, creating a unity, a blend between Ho Chi Minh and the Vietnamese people, simply because he was a son of this nation and never betrayed them. He was always deeply attached to the people and that struggle."

As for Mr. Fabien Roussel, National Secretary of the French Communist Party (PCF), "President Ho Chi Minh was one of the people who led the Vietnamese people to gain national independence. Although he passed away in 1969, he initiated the struggle for independence from the Indochina period. There was a very deep connection between Ho Chi Minh and the French Communist Party, because President Ho Chi Minh was present at the Tours Congress in 1920, the time of the founding of the French Communist Party. His presence was very important to the French Communist Party, because he told us about the colonial regime, about the horrors of colonialism that the Vietnamese people had to endure. But he himself also learned a lot from the discussions, from the friendship between peoples, between workers, sharing the same aspiration to escape imperialism and colonialism. All of that has formed a very strong bond between us, lasting until today. now".
