When did Nguyen Ai Quoc return to lead the revolution in Vietnam?
| Leader Nguyen Ai Quoc chose to return to his homeland at a time when both domestic and global situations were experiencing strong changes. After the Government of France surrendered to Nazi Germany in June 1940, he assessed this as a “favorable opportunity for the Vietnamese revolution” and emphasized that returning was necessary. The national liberation struggle within the country was developing strongly, especially after Japan entered Indochina, prompting the people to rise with several uprisings, such as the Bac Son and Nam Ky uprisings. However, the revolutionary movement was brutally repressed by the French colonialists, leading the Communist Party to establish an interim Central Committee at the Central Conference in November 1940. In this urgent situation, the Communist Party needed to strengthen its organizational system to lead the movement. Comrade Hoang Van Thu was assigned the task of meeting Nguyen Ai Quoc. In December 1940, at Tinh Tay, Hoang Van Thu reported to him about the preparations for the 8th Central Conference and the organization of political training classes for patriotic youths. When returning to the homeland, he crossed milestone 108 (milestone 675) and reached Pac Bo, Cao Bang. This was an ideal location to establish a revolutionary base, thanks to its convenient position and local movement. He stayed at Mr. Ly Quoc Sung's house and later moved to Coc Bo Cave to live and work, demonstrating strategic vision and sensitivity in foreseeing the future of the Vietnamese revolution. |
