The recent news about shootings in #Vietnam's police stations in Đắk Lắk, a province in Central Highlands, may have now recaptured the issues about the history of Montagnards, a group of indigenous tribes living in the region.channelnewsasia.com/asia/several-k…
The shootings and recently captured assailants, published by state media, may only further indicated the possible historical grievances in a region that has been largely considered pacified by the Vietnamese regime. 
Montagnards, the first indigenous peoples in the Highlands, has a long history of frictions with the Vietnamese rulers. The region was absorbed by the Nguyễn dynasty in the 19th century as part of Southward expansion, but Vietnamese made contacts even earlier than that.
Excited about PM @AlboMP upcoming visit to #Vietnam (and his @IISS_org #SLD2023 keynote!).

Hello, Connections! Welcome back to my weekly column #ATHCOriginal #AskATHC. Today, I want to discuss a rather controversial topic—#Women.

Last week, I discussed #ContentWriting, but today's topic is different. Before going further, I want to declare outright that I am not a feminist or atheist. I am just a pragmatic, who sees a glass & water as two distinct things rather than seeing it half-empty or half full.
World has moved forward. Girls have gone to space! But culture, religion, ethics, & social evils continue to haunt girls worldwide. I don't want to talk about India, you've plenty of cases where women face atrocities almost every single day here. #RuralIndia #WomenLifeFreedom

1/Yesterday a flotilla of #China maritime militia ships moving SE executed an unusual 90deg turn, spread out & began moving SW—on a course that would intriguingly lead them directly into the #ASEAN-#India Maritime Exercise group headed NE from Singapore.

Il 6 giugno 1969, il Fronte Nazionale per la Liberazione del Vietnam del Sud (NLF) e altre organizzazioni politiche e sociali convocarono un congresso di rappresentanti del Sud che portò alla creazione del Governo Rivoluzionario Provvisorio della
Repubblica del Vietnam del Sud ( PRG), che inizierebbe a svolgere un ruolo decisivo nella formazione del potere rivoluzionario in questa parte del Paese .
Va detto che dal 1970 la lotta in Laos e Cambogia, anch'essa occupata dagli USA, si è rafforzata ei patrioti di questi paesi hanno iniziato a coordinare i loro sforzi con le FNL per lo sviluppo della guerra rivoluzionaria.

In five years, #JoeBiden will likely get the #NobelPeacePrize. But not because he did anything proactively for peace.
It is because a #Multipolar World will be more peaceful than a unipolar one, and Biden has done more than anyone else (albeit unwittingly) to further that. (1/n)

The Vietnam War’s most iconic helicopter, the UH-1 Iroquois “Huey” was a ubiquitous transport and gunship which came to represent the conflict in the public’s imagination.
#Armyhistory
First introduced in the 1950s, the U.S. Army soon adopted the UH-1 helicopter for use in a variety of roles. Its original designation was "HU" for "helicopter, utility" (hence the sobriquet "HUey"), which was later changed to "UH" for "utility helicopter."
#USArmy @USArmy
#USArmy @USArmy
The UH-1 and its variants were the backbone of the Army’s new airmobile doctrine and performed a variety of roles. These included close air support gunships, assault aircraft for infantrymen, basic transport functions, and "air ambulances" for medical evacuation.

55 years ago today, American soldiers committed mass massacre and rape in a small Vietnamese village known as “My Lai 4.”
About hundred US G.I.s and officers were looking for Viet Cong soldiers in the village. But there were only women, girls, children and old men.

Au #Vietnam, il est courant d’avoir les maisons ouvertes, alors qu’en France c'est un espace prive

#Swedish telecom giant Ericsson has been fined $207 million for violating a deferred prosecution deal with US authorities by concealing evidence of serious misconduct in #Iraq, where the company reportedly bribed #ISIS to access a specific transport route between 2011 & 2019.
In a statement issued on 2 March, Ericsson said it had entered “a guilty plea regarding previously deferred charges relating to conduct prior to 2017” for not disclosing its inquiry to the US authorities.
