What did Ho Chi Minh want to convey through the work "Bản án chế độ thực dân Pháp"?

Through the work "Bản án chế độ thực dân Pháp", Ho Chi Minh aimed to strongly condemn the crimes of French colonialism against the people of An Nam and colonized nations worldwide, exposing the inhumane and brutal nature of colonialist policies. Specifically, the main content Ho Chi Minh wished to convey through the work is as follows:

- Condemning the Crimes of French Colonialists:

+ Ho Chi Minh detailed the brutal ruling policies of the French colonialists over the Vietnamese people, such as exploiting labor, suppressing patriotic movements, stifling freedom and human rights, and destroying the national culture.

+ The French colonialists used methods to plunder resources, economically exploit, force labor, and commit acts of violence, torture, and killing to maintain their domination. This pushed the lives of the people of An Nam into extreme poverty and backwardness.

- Exposing the Deceptive Nature of French Colonists:

+ The work exposed the contradiction between the slogan "Liberty, Equality, Fraternity" that the French professed and their actual actions in the colonies.

+ Ho Chi Minh showed that the French colonists were not "civilizing" as they propagated but used insidious policies to maintain power and exploit the resources and labor of the colonized peoples.

- Awakening the Revolutionary Awareness of Oppressed Nations:

+ Ho Chi Minh not only aimed to condemn the French colonists but also wished to stir up the spirit of patriotism and the consciousness of struggle among the people of An Nam and other colonized nations.

+ He emphasized that to escape oppression and slavery, the colonized peoples needed to rise up, liberate themselves, unite, and resolutely strive for independence and freedom.

- Denouncing the Colonial System Worldwide:

+ The "Bản án chế độ thực dân Pháp" does not only stop at condemning French colonialism in Vietnam but also expands its denunciation to the entire colonial system worldwide. Ho Chi Minh pointed out that not only the people of An Nam but also the colonized peoples in Asia, Africa, and Latin America were suffering from oppression and exploitation under colonial rule.

+ The work emphasized that colonial policies are an unjust and inhumane system that must be abolished.

- Calling for Support from Progressive People Worldwide:

+ Ho Chi Minh used the work to convey a message to the forces that cherish peace and progress, especially the French people. He called on them to acknowledge clearly the brutality of the colonial government and to unite and support the national liberation movements in the colonies.

With the "Bản án chế độ thực dân Pháp," Ho Chi Minh not only condemned the crimes of the colonists but also sent a powerful message: only revolutionary struggle, unity, and self-reliance can help the colonized peoples break free from the shackles of colonialism and achieve independence and freedom.
