August Revolution and National Day: Glorious historical milestone for Vietnam

Over the past 79 years, it has become evident that the success of the August Revolution in 1945 was due to the wise leadership of the Indochinese Communist Party and its leader, Nguyen Ai Quoc (later Ho Chi Minh). It was also a result of the unity, solidarity, and relentless efforts of the Vietnamese people in overcoming challenges, hardships, and sacrifices. The revolution's success marked a new chapter in Vietnamese history, setting the nation on a path of "national independence closely linked with socialism."
