Mission Impossible'

With a 14-part structure, the book's content is presented through impressive and attractive section titles associated with profound analysis and interpretation, with the consistent idea that to explain the outcome of a war, one must understand how the war began.

The book "Dien Bien Phu - Mission Impossible" has just been published by the National Political Publishing House Truth.

The choice to build Dien Bien Phu as the strongest stronghold in the Navarre plan affirmed the importance and desire of France to change the situation of the war in Indochina. Dien Bien Phu thus became a "historic rendezvous" in the confrontation between two opponents who were both eager to win.

However, the French colonialists' mission, which was considered feasible, soon became impossible, because their ambition to invade could not stop the strength of patriotism and the determination to regain independence and peace of the Vietnamese people.

Written in an engaging and novel style, accessing diverse and rich domestic and foreign documents with an objective historical perspective, the book has contributed to clearly depicting the stature of victory of the Vietnamese army and people in the resistance war against the French colonialists, with the feat "famous in five continents, shaking the earth" - Dien Bien Phu.

The book is expected to be a valuable reference for all readers about the historic Dien Bien Phu Victory.
