The Dien Bien Phu Victory on May 7, 1954, forced the French colonialists to sit down at the negotiation table to discuss and sign the Geneva Accords on ending the war and restoring peace in Indochina in July 1954, putting an end to the prolonged French colonial rule and heralding a new stage for the revolution in Indochina. The signing of the Geneva Accords was a historical milestone for the nation and opened up a new page in the Vietnamese people’s struggle for national liberation, unification, and socialist construction.
President Ho Chi Minh and the Central Committee of the Party launched a strategic decision to bring officers, soldiers, and students from the South to the North to work and study, contributing to training cadres for the struggle for the South Liberation and National Reunification, and building socialism in the North.
