Summary of "LÀ ĐỐI TƯỢNG “ĐỂ MẮT” CỦA MỌI CƯỜNG QUỐC, VÌ SAO VIỆT NAM KO LOẠN NHƯ UKRAINE, VENE, IRAN?"
Analysis of Vietnam’s Stability and Unity Amid Global Power Rivalries
The video explores why Vietnam remains stable and united despite being a focal point of interest for global powers. It contrasts Vietnam’s situation with countries like Ukraine, Venezuela, and Iran, which have experienced turmoil or chaos. The central argument is that Vietnam’s unique national “DNA” and historical experience have enabled it to avoid internal collapse and foreign manipulation.
Key Points
1. Global Power Rivalries and Proxy Conflicts
The U.S. and its allies often use proxy conflicts and color revolutions to destabilize rival nations. Examples include Ukraine, Venezuela, Syria, and Iran. The U.S. pursues strategic interests by supporting opposition groups and fomenting unrest to weaken adversaries such as Russia, China, and Iran.
2. Vietnam’s Unique Historical Resilience and Unity
Vietnam’s history of overcoming ruin, war, famine, and foreign domination has ingrained a strong sense of unity and collective strength in its people. The proverb:
“A bundle of chopsticks is stronger than a single chopstick”
symbolizes the importance of solidarity. Vietnamese culture prioritizes national unity above internal disputes, especially when the homeland is threatened.
3. The Role of National Memory and Identity
Unlike countries that have lost their identity and fallen into chaos (e.g., Libya after Gaddafi’s overthrow), Vietnam retains a collective memory of past struggles and sacrifices. This shared memory helps maintain social cohesion and prevents internal fragmentation.
4. Integration of Military and Police with the People
Vietnam’s armed forces and police are deeply connected to the population, coming from the same communities and sharing the same goals. This unity prevents military coups or internal divisions seen in other countries where the military acts independently or against the people.
5. Government Responsibility and Social Welfare
The government demonstrates a monopoly of responsibility rather than power, especially in responding to natural disasters such as floods in the Central Highlands. It mobilizes the army and police to rebuild homes quickly, ensuring no one is homeless during Tet (Lunar New Year). This contrasts with capitalist systems where individuals often rely on insurance or personal means.
6. Patriotism Defined as Stability and Protection
True patriotism in Vietnam means maintaining peace, avoiding chaos, and preventing the country from becoming a pawn in foreign power struggles. The video contrasts this with protests and unrest in countries like Iran, where foreign interference has exacerbated economic grievances into violent upheaval.
7. Criticism vs. Destruction
Constructive criticism aimed at improvement is welcomed in Vietnam. However, destructive actions that sow chaos are viewed as betrayals of national history and unity.
8. Vietnam’s Current International Standing
Although not the richest or most powerful country, Vietnam’s independence, self-reliance, and unity have earned it respect and strategic partnerships with major powers such as Russia, China, and India. Even U.S. leadership seeks to strengthen ties with Vietnam.
Overall Conclusion
The video credits Vietnam’s political stability and social cohesion to several key factors:
- Its historical experience and collective identity
- Integration of security forces with the people
- A government committed to social welfare and national unity
These elements shield Vietnam from the internal chaos and foreign manipulation seen in other countries.
