Vietnam
From the Poison of Imperialism to the Healing of Revolution
The Vietnamese have every reason
to celebrate their national day, Sep-
tember 2nd, the day in 1945 when Viet-
nam was proclaimed an independent
republic after the victorious August
revolution. Since the liberation of the
South in 1975,Vietnam has accom-
plished great successes which make us
all optimistic as to the future of this coun-

try: gross national production has
increased by 47.7%, agricultural pro-
duction by 56.1% and exports by a
phenomenal 309.4%.
The dimensions of this victory must
be seen in relation to the state in which

dumped tonnes of toxic gases and
sabotage defoliants such as 44,300
cubic meters of Agent Orange on the
country and its population, and branded
the people with napalm. Poisons with
long time effects on people, vegetation,
animals and soil.So poisonous that Viet-
nam still suffers because of this.
The final victory over US im-
perialism united the masses in 1975,
and was also a victory for all progres-
sive, nationalist and socialist people all.
over the world. It added to the revolutio-
nary experience and theoretical thought.
Even the language was enriched by
terms as «US's Vietnam syndrom». All
of this was marked by the surprising and
yet scientifically sound conclusion: a
small, brave and determined people was
able to defeat the seemingly almighty
power of an empire.

But the destructive power of
imperialism continued its aggression
against Vietnam. Through embargoes
and blockades the US aimed to prevent
the reconstruction of Vietnam. They
used Asian countries relying on US sup-
port to launch military attacks on Viet-
nam, and with the help of Asian regimes,
they forged new imperialist chains. Us - هو جزء من
