During the war, 200,000 refugees came to China, and now they have settled for a long time, but they have been refusing to leave, and they still want to obtain Chinese nationality.
Most of these 200,000 refugees are from Vietnam, and the reason why they came to live in China has a lot to do with the wars of aggression.
In the last century, Vietnam, because of its relatively backward development, was often bullied by Western powers and became a French colony long ago.
After the outbreak of World War II, Germany used blitzkrieg to quickly conquer European countries and defeat the seemingly powerful France.
Japan, which worked closely with Germany, used Germany's deterrence to force France to leave and quickly took over all of Vietnam in order to gain more benefits.
Since then, Vietnam has become a large granary in Japan, and every time the peasants finish farming and prepare to harvest grain, Japan will use powerful force to force the Vietnamese people to hand over their family grain and leave them only a little ration necessary for life.
Later, Vietnam's agriculture, due to successive natural disasters, the output declined rapidly, but the Japanese invaders' demand for food increased unabated.
In order to meet their own needs, the Japanese invaders forcibly expropriated grain regardless of the lives of the Vietnamese people, causing unimaginable harm to the Vietnamese people.
Someone once conducted a survey, and it was painfully found that in just a few years, from the Japanese takeover of Vietnam to the announcement of surrender, more than 2 million people in Vietnam died unnaturally, of which more than 10,000 people were starved to death because they had no food.
This humiliating and dark history has always been a disgrace in the hearts of the Vietnamese people. To avoid a recurrence of this, the Vietnamese people established a republic in the north, but the peace they had hoped for did not come.
The Vietnamese emperor, who refused to give up his special powers, with the support of the French colonists, established a South Vietnamese and tried to destroy the North Vietnamese.
At that time, North Vietnam and china had relatively close relations. My country has therefore provided them with much help in driving out the French colonizers.
Later, the United States invaded Vietnam and once again disrupted the situation on the ground in a more brutal way. In the face of a superpower like the United States, China, which is still in a weak state, did not choose to compromise and make concessions, but rose to the occasion and continued to support Vietnam and help them carry out the anti-aggression struggle.
With strong Chinese support, the North Vietnamese not only gained a foothold, but also inflicted great damage on american troops through successive battles. In the end, north Vietnam won a comprehensive victory and achieved the reunification of the north and the south.
In this tragic war, a large number of Vietnamese people were forcibly displaced by the devastation of the war. More than 200,000 Vietnamese people, longing for a peaceful life, have come to China through the border line.
At that time, China's economic situation was not very good, and these 200,000 people were also a big burden for us, but we did not refuse, but accepted them very tolerantly. Not only that, but my country has publicly pledged to give them permanent asylum.
The United Nations has greatly recognized China's selfless assistance and publicly commended it, and China's international image has also been greatly enhanced because of this humanitarian relief activity.
In 1976, Vietnam officially ended the war and established a relatively unified country, but those Vietnamese people stranded in China were not willing to leave directly, but continued to rely on China, and even wanted to join China and become a real Chinese. They do this for two main reasons.
First, they have settled in China, lived for many years, are accustomed to Chinese life, and are unwilling to return to Vietnam to struggle.
Second, the new leadership of the Vietnamese government, which has already taken control of the power, did not put the country's economic construction first, but embarked on the road of expanding the country by force.
In the previous war, Vietnam received a lot of materials because of the strong support of China and the Soviet Union, and also captured a large number of American equipment through the victory of the war, and its military strength has been significantly improved.
Therefore, after Vietnam took military action, it easily captured countries such as Thailand and Laos, which seriously disrupted the international situation.
What is even more chilling is that after Vietnam was condemned by all countries in the world, instead of giving up in time, it provoked China in ungratefully, creating many contradictions and frictions in the border areas.
Our country has sent people to consult with Vietnam on many occasions, hoping to resolve the problems of the two sides through peaceful negotiations. However, Vietnam, which has been extremely ambitious, is not willing to communicate normally.
They are confident that they have become a powerful military state that can easily win victories even if they fight china.
As a result, Vietnam has maintained a strong attitude and has even gathered a large number of troops in the border areas.
In the face of the ambitious Vietnam, china has considered it again and again, and finally decided to fight back by force and protect its sovereignty and dignity with practical actions.
After the fighting between the two sides officially broke out, the Vietnamese top brass, who were still full of confidence, found in despair that they had seriously overestimated their own strength and seriously underestimated China's strength. The so-called elite Vietnamese troops have no way of being compared with the Chinese troops.
As soon as the battle broke out, the Chinese army defeated the Vietnamese army with an almost overwhelming advantage and won a brilliant victory.
If our country wants to, it can capture the Vietnamese capital at any time and occupy Vietnam completely, but we did not do so, but chose to withdraw our troops on our own initiative and ended the battle in a relatively euphemistic way.
China's tolerant treatment has been sincerely admired by all countries in the world, but the Vietnamese government is reluctant to admit the results of the defeat. In order to save the face they had lost, the Vietnamese government leaders continued to seduce ordinary people and encourage them to continue fighting on the front line.
Because of the stubbornness of the Vietnamese government leadership, relations between China and Vietnam have been very bad for the next few years. Those refugees stranded in China, affected by international relations, are unable to return and can only stay in China to continue their lives.
With the passage of time, the smoke of the war has long since dissipated, and the relations between China and Vietnam have also undergone obvious changes. However, the refugees who came during the war still did not return to Vietnam, and they tried to rely on China and refused to leave.
They are well aware that China has been developing rapidly over the past few decades and is now a well-deserved world power.
On the other hand, although Vietnam has also developed somewhat, its comprehensive strength cannot be compared with China. Therefore, they prefer to stay in China and take root, rather than return to the relatively backward and poor Vietnam.
It is not difficult to see that the more powerful a country is, the more attractive it is. We should be proud and proud of the strength of the motherland, and we should also cherish everything in the present, greet the future with a better mentality, and contribute more to the long-term development of the motherland.
