The book Journey for Peace. |
Through each story, readers will see more clearly the silent sacrifices and borderless solidarity of the Vietnamese "blue beret" soldiers...
The book "Journey for Peace" is not only a document recording the valuable contributions of the Vietnamese "blue beret" force, but also a reminder of each of our responsibilities towards peace.
In addition, the book also provides insight into the role and significance of the Vietnam People's Army's participation in humanitarian missions...
"I hope this book will become a source of inspiration for the young generation of Vietnam, especially those in the military. The stories about the courage, sense of responsibility, and selfless sacrifice for the noble goal of the Vietnamese "blue beret" soldiers will be a strong source of motivation, arousing patriotism, national pride, and the desire to contribute of future generations," wrote Senior Lieutenant General Nguyen Trong Nghia, Politburo member, Secretary of the Party Central Committee, Head of the Central Propaganda and Mass Mobilization Commission, in the book's introduction.
In addition, according to many delegates attending the book introduction, the book that Senior Lieutenant General Nguyen Chi Vinh left behind is also "a walk in the memories of a retired soldier" to help readers have a clearer view of the Party and the army's viewpoints when making the decision to participate in the United Nations peacekeeping force, from overcoming mental barriers, to learning about reality, building the force from "zero"... until the red flag with yellow star of Vietnam flies in the United Nations peacekeeping missions.
Because “The desire for peace is both a need and a responsibility of a country of 100 million people like Vietnam.
That is the law and also the motivation for us to join hands to protect peace on this earth," wrote Senior Lieutenant General Nguyen Chi Minh.
