ACTIVITIES PATIENT OF VIETNAMESE PEOPLE IN FRANCE BEFORE PERIOD NATIONAL RESISTANCE RESISTANCE 2.1 The formation of the Vietnamese community in France 2.1.1 Vietnamese community in France before 1930 Vietnamese people came to France very early but not until the early twentieth century, the Vietnamese community in France increased significantly The main reason is that the difficult situation in France during World War I forced the government of the country to recruit workers According to journalist Pierre Daum, since 1914, the French government has mobilized approximately 200,000 workers from the colonies, of which about 49,000 are from Indochina In 1918, the First World War ended, the majority of the soldiers and soldiers were repatriated The number of people staying in their careers is not very large, about 1,000 people The number of Vietnamese in France changed from 1924 to 1929 According to the French Police Department, as of January 1929, "there were 5,000 Indochinese people, divided into three main categories: 1,000 sailors, 1,265 cookers , 1,700 students and high school students " 2.1.2 Vietnamese community in France from 1930 to 1945 The world economic crisis 1929-1933 caused many serious consequences for humanity, in which the French economy suffered many serious losses Accordingly, at factories and production facilities in France, workers and workers are much fired Therefore, the number of Vietnamese in France during this period has changed The report at the Sixth Congress of the French General Confederation on November 15, 1931, said that there were 20 thousand colonial workers on the French workers' market Of these, most are from Indochina In the following years, the number of Vietnamese people in France increased In 1939, France joined the Second World War, so the demand for human resources was set again Regarding the mechanic, the document of "Indochina Workers" indicated that from October 20, 1939 to June 6, 1940, there were 15 trains carrying 19,273 people from Indochina to Marseille According to statistics, the number of intellectuals accounts for very few of the nearly 40,000 overseas Vietnamese in France in the 40s of the last century Mostly Vietnamese in France are soldiers and soldiers to fight the war The number of students almost did not want or could not go to France for many reasons: economic, transportation, war, policies for soldiers, soldiers of the French Government 10 2.2 Some organizations and activities of Vietnamese people in France before 1945 2.2.1 Some organizations The first organization of Vietnamese people in France is the cordial Council This association was born on January 18, 1912, founded by lawyer Phan Van Truong and served as President This organization has the purpose of mutual support, in order to foster patriotism for overseas Vietnamese Thinking with him, Phan Chau Trinh, who came to France in 1911, was also thinking In late 1917, from England, Nguyen Tat Thanh, later Nguyen Ai Quoc, came to France and participated in patriotic activities in the Vietnamese community The appearance of Nguyen Ai Quoc has made all activities of Vietnamese people in France change in a positive direction Nguyen Ai Quoc and Phan Van Truong and Phan Chau Trinh founded the Association of Patriotic Vietnamese, which was formerly a patriotic group of Annamese people in mid-1919 If the beloved compatriots were officially born, then the Association of Patriotic Vietnamese is an unofficial organization The policy of the Association is to mobilize people to unite against the regime of oppressing the French colonialists, enlist the support and support of the French people and the people of the countries, including ethnic groups, to seek independence freedom and unification for the Vietnamese nation In the list of leaders, Nguyen Ai Quoc served as a secretary Although nominally, Phan Chau Trinh and Phan Van Truong were leaders of the Association, but in fact, that role belonged to Nguyen Ai Quoc In 1919, Nguyen Ai Quoc and Phan Chau Trinh and Phan Van Truong drafted an eight-point version of An Nam's people book to the Versailles Conference, under a book signed by Nguyen Ai Quoc In 1921, the Association of Patriotic Vietnamese, together with some Africans (Madagascar) advocated to rejoin into a society, named the Social Group of colonial people In June 1921, the Colonial Research Department was established Among the participants were Nguyen Ai Quoc and some overseas Vietnamese In the above organizations, there is a notable association that Nguyen Ai Quoc is also one of the founders, the Union of Colonial Nations, which was established on June 26, 1921 This is not only an organization of Vietnamese people in France but also of other French colonial people here With the efforts of the Association's Executive Committee, especially Nguyen Ai Quoc, on April 1, 1922, Le Paria newspaper - the Association's mouthpiece was published This is a very effective and practical propaganda channel to the colonial peoples including Vietnam In 1925, there was an additional Association of Indochina Workers 11 At the end of 1927, An Nam Labor Protection Association appeared, founded in Marseille, most of them were sailors According to the charter, the association is organized to advocate for An Nam workers' rights In December 1927, a number of Vietnamese Communist sailors, Nguyen Van Tu and Dang Ba Linh, established the Vietnam Labor Rights Protection Association In the period of 1926-1930, in France, there were two opposing Vietnamese organizations, the Constitutional Party and the Vietnamese independent Party In the cities of Paris, Toulouse, Montpellier, where students and intellectuals are concentrated, in 1926, they organized the Association of Indochinese Students In March 1929, the An Nam Labor Protection Association of Marseille invited Parisian student delegates Nguyen Khanh Toan and Ho Ta Khanh to Marseille to unify the establishment of a new organization named the Eastern Labor Union Ocean In addition, at the time before 1930, there were many other Vietnamese organizations in France Communist Party members On November 22, 1933, at the cafe De la Source, the boulevard Saint Michel had a group meeting of Indochinese communist members The conference elected Tran Quoc Mai held the responsibility to take charge of the group and prepare a replacement for Nguyen Van Tri for the position of President of Cultural Mutual Association - The Groupe de langues group, which is actually a group of famous foreign Communists in France, is in charge of lawyer Phan Nhuan - Committees of representatives of all levels, establishments, military labor camps In addition to these committees, there are youth groups, self-defense groups, farm workers, illiteracy eradication - The General Committee represents on behalf of the Vietnamese community in France This organization was founded on September 16, 1944 2.2.2 Activities of the Vietnamese community in France 2.2.2.1 Solidarity of the community Among students, Vietnamese students in France often have a movement to organize summer camps On that occasion, they often invited prestigious intellectuals to speak Overseas Vietnamese often hold joint meetings to strengthen and strengthen solidarity, improve understanding for all members of the community Besides, the traditional holidays of the nation, especially the Lunar New Year, the overseas Vietnamese, depending on the locality, celebrate Tet One of the great contributions of overseas Vietnamese in France (mainly sailors) is to transport and distribute leaflets, progressive books and newspapers and 12 books of the French Communist Party, the Communist International to the country and come to the people of the French colonies 2.2.2.2 Fighting for rights The economic crisis of 1929 - 1933 forced the French Government to reduce workers, to repatriate workers from French colonies, including Indochinese workers, accordingly, unemployment occurred at everywhere Under these circumstances, thanks to the help of the French Communist Party and the French General Assembly, overseas Vietnamese organizations have repeatedly voiced their strong opposition to the extension of workers and the demand for unemployment benefits for the brothers During the period of the Popular Front to come to power in France, the movement of overseas Vietnamese had a better development condition In September 1939, the Second World War broke out In June 1940, France lost the battle and lost the country Under the occupation of Nazi Germany (19401944), the life of Vietnamese soldiers as well as Vietnamese soldiers in France was very miserable This forced overseas Vietnamese to protest even if they did not want to, leading to people being imprisoned, having people fired To save me, the struggle with the real strike form of 1,000 Pham Quynh campers lasted 48 hours The struggle has won, resonating in public opinion During the years of occupation, the French people fought for independence under the banner of the Charles de Gaulle Resistance Government Vietnamese warriors escaped also joined the resistance against the French people, often joining the guerrilla teams F.F.I A part of overseas Vietnamese in the south of France volunteered to stand in the ranks of French guerrillas, fighting stubbornly against Nazi Germany After the liberation of France, the French Communist Party also sank into narrow-minded nationalism, wanting to colonize France Therefore, before sharing joy with the French people, Viet Kieu entered a new struggle more difficult From December 15 to December 17, 1944, the Congress of representatives of the Vietnamese community in France took place and established the Representative Board of Vietnam 2.2.2.3 Press activities The press activities of Vietnamese people in France were laid by Nguyen Ai Quoc with the first Le Paria (The Suffering) in 1922 In January 1926, Vietnamese journalists were written in Vietnamese by Nguyen The Truyen, chairman and editor During their existence, Vietnamese souls have accompanied many patriotic movements of overseas Vietnamese Also in 1926,

unite the French, in order to seek benefits for its members, to demand necessary rights for the brothers and sisters, to unite with brothers and sisters labor Along with the Friend of the boat, there is also a Sailor sailor; The Call (L’Appel) was produced by Phan Tat Tan as a court secretary in mid1937 In August 1944, France was liberated Newspapers of overseas Vietnamese are published a lot to inform the situation, determine the attitude and tasks before the new time In 1945, after a period of operation, the Bolshevik Lenin group (referred to as the B.L group) consisted of a number of intellectuals in Viet Nam who were inclined to describe, giving out the Fight Some other intellectuals such as Nguyen Khac Vien, Vo Quy Huan, Hoang Xuan Man, Tran Huu Phuong and Bui Thach advocated Nam Viet newspaper In addition to these two newspapers, during the time of French occupation, out of a total of 30,000 Vietnamese overseas Vietnamese, the Overseas Echoes (L’Echo d’Outre mer) were circulated by the French Colonial Ministry 2.3 The new situation and patriotic activities of the Vietnamese in France in the period 1945 – 1946 2.3.1 The new situation and strategies of the Indochina Communist Party period 1945 – 1946 August Revolution (1945) was successful, the Democratic Republic of Vietnam was born However, this Government faced a very difficult situation The challenges posed

situation and 14 points out the necessary tasks: " The domestic task is to strengthen the government , against French colonial aggression, eliminating internal resistance, improving people's lives ” With the right direction of the National Resistance Resistance Directive of the Indochinese Communist Party, Vietnam revolution has gradually overcome a difficult period The Party's peace strategy has pushed 20 thousand Chiang Kai-shek troops back home, maintained and strengthened the government In particular, with the Preliminary Agreement (March 6, 1946) and Provisional Treaty on September 14, 1946, it helped the revolution enlist the time of peace to prepare for the long-term resistance after that 2.3.2 The patriotic activities of Vietnamese people in France in the period 1945-1946 2.3.2.1 Patriotic activities of Vietnamese soldiers in France From 1945 to the end of 1947, there were about 1,000 selected soldiers among the weakest people to go home Accordingly, from 1945 to the end of 1947, the number of workers still accounted for a large proportion of the Vietnamese community in France And before the new situation, their positive activities continued Upon hearing the news that Vietnam was independent, Vietnamese soldiers in France were really excited They believe in the Democratic Republic of Vietnam Government and especially President Ho Chi Minh On September 23, 1945, French troops opened fire on Saigon, opening their second invasion in Vietnam The act of aggression by the French colonialists encountered the outcry of Vietnamese soldiers in France at this time In

movement of Vietnamese soldiers in France continued to be exciting 15 2.3.2.2 Patriotic activities of other parts of Vietnamese people in France On September 23, 1945, the French colonialists opened fire to attack Saigon, opening the war of Vietnam for the second time Although there was no direct condition to fight for national defense, the Vietnamese community loved France has immediate plans and actions: The Board of Representatives of Vietnam of the Vietnamese community in France issued an order to take September 18 as a strike day for all Vietnamese soldiers in general in France to oppose its own policy of invading Vietnam French colonial government In early October 1945, the Board of Representatives of Vietnam was banned by French authorities In December 1945, on behalf of 25,000 compatriots in France, 105 delegates of the meeting in Marseille established an overseas Vietnamese alliance to support the President of President Ho Chi Minh The French government has taken actions to prevent patriotic activities of the Vietnamese community in France The repression and detention of police politicians took place regularly Faced with the fierce deterrence of the authorities, the Vietnamese community in France cleverly combined methods of legal struggle In the months of late 1945 and early 1946, the patriotic movement of the Vietnamese community in France did not distinguish between politics, religion, age, and components that united and supported the Government of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam draw and oppose the invasion war of French colonialists in Vietnam In June 1946, the Vietnam Democratic Republic delegation led by Pham Van Dong went to France to negotiate at the Fontainebleau Conference with the French Government President Ho Chi Minh

of France in particular, the news about the revolution and other information in Vietnam came to overseas Vietnamese people not only limited but also a lot of information lacking objectivity by the distortion of the truth of reactionary forces in the French colonial government However, in general, activities in the field of journalism took place quite enthusiastically Chapter PATRIOTIC ACTIVITIES OF THE VIETNAMESE PEOPLE IN FRANCE PERIOD 1946-1954 17 3.1 The new situation and the strategy of resistance against the French colonialists of the Indochinese Communist Party 3.1.1 Vietnam situation after Fontainebleau Conference After signing the September 14 peace agreement, President Ho Chi Minh returned to Vietnam While the Republic of Vietnam Democrats strictly enforced the terms of the agreements, the French colonialists continued to flip In particular, on days 18 and 19/12/1946, the French colonialists sent an ultimatum to the Government of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam to give Hanoi management rights to the French army In the face of this situation, the Party Central Committee issued the All-People Resistance Directive On December 19, 1946, President Ho Chi Minh read the Call for Nationwide Resistance The resistance against the French colonialism of the Vietnamese people entered a new period: the national resistance period 3.1.2 The strategy of resistance against the French colonialists of the Indochinese Communist Party The strategy of resistance against the French colonialists of the Indochinese Communist Party is shown in three major documents: - Directive of the entire Central Resistance Party (December 12, 1946); - President Ho Chi Minh's call for national resistance (December 19, 1946) - Truong Chinh's Resistance War won the victory (July 1947) The core content of the French anti-colonial resistance line of the Indochina Communist Party is: All people, comprehensive and long-term, relying on their own strength 3.2 Patriotic activities of Vietnamese people in France during the period 1946 - 1950 3.2.1 Struggling activities of Vietnamese soldiers in France In fact, French Government continuously wishes to make the majority of overseas Vietnamese in France resent, especially the contingent of Vietnamese soldiers in France The struggle of Vietnamese people in France to protest the war of dirty invasion of French colonialists in Vietnam and support the resistance of the nation continuously took place in the period after December 19, 1946 The movement of Vietnamese soldier workers continues to be exciting 18 In the years 1946 - 1948, the movement of Vietnamese soldiers in France became fierce and fierce Prime Minister P Ramadier plotted to build a henchman government in Vietnam to negotiate with the government They used the former Emperor Bao Dai as a political card in Vietnam In September 1947, former Emperor Bao Dai returned home, set up a national Vietnamese government, nominally representing Vietnam, but in fact a puppet government Vietnamese military personnel in France were aware of the problem They claimed to support Ho Chi Minh Government only and oppose the Bao Dai puppet government Vietnamese soldiers in France also enlisted the support of the French people who love peace It was this force that supported the movement of Vietnamese people in France to become larger and stronger In fact, the struggle movement of Vietnamese soldiers in France in the years 1948-1949 met many difficulties The patriotic movement of the Vietnamese community in France gradually turned to a new phase - the stage where the core is intellectuals 3.2.2 Patriotic activities of other components in the Vietnamese community in France Before returning to Vietnam, President Ho Chi Minh sent a permanent delegation to represent the Democratic Republic of Vietnam Government in France Mr Tran Ngoc Danh is the Chief of this delegation The General Secretary of the Delegation is Mr Tran Thanh Xuan The mission of this delegation is tasked to bring the path of the Indochinese Communist Party to the Vietnamese in France and orienting the patriotic activities of this force 3.2.2.1 Patriotic activities of intellectuals and students The French government is still very limited in bringing Vietnamese people to France So before the Revolution in August 1945, Vietnamese students and students in France accounted for a small percentage of the Vietnamese overseas community The situation changed from 1947 onwards The French government has a policy of bringing Vietnamese students and students to France to prevent them from participating in the resistance war in Vietnam So, it is easier for Vietnamese students and students who want to study in France at this time The number of Vietnamese students, students and intellectuals in France has increased Therefore, the patriotic activity of this department will play an important role 19 Overseas Vietnamese at this time have an organization called Union Culture One of the typical organizations of overseas Vietnamese in France is now Friendship Association The association was established around the end of 1947 Among them were the patriotic members, especially those who came to France from the Second World War In May 1949, the General Student Association conducted the Vietnamese Student Congress throughout France to elect the Executive Committee The Student Association is located in Paris and also directly leads the patriotic movement of Vietnamese students here In the years 1947-1949, a series of student, student, informal and other social components of Vietnamese people in France were born Political struggle is a thuowuowngfxuyeen activity of Vietnamese people in France But this is the activity that poses a danger to them because the French Government often prohibits and punishes those activities Witnesses like: Ms Mai Thi Trinh; Doctor Nguyen Ngoc Ha; doctor Duong Quang Trung They said that this job is very dangerous, must be done secretly, be careful only to spread at night: The way is to spread single spread on the streets or paste on the walls empty The leaflets not express opposition to the French government but only call for peace, freedom, equality, and general charity, so the law does not prohibit it, so it can be done in broad daylight When the French colonialists used the Bao Dai puppet government to deny
