Summary

Description
English: North Vietnam 1946 - President Ho Chi Minh received at the residence of the French Governor, General Leclerc, in the presence of the Commissioner of the Republic of Tonkin, Jean Sainteny, March 18, 1946.

March 18, 1946: Entry into Hà-Nôi of General Leclerc and French troops (9th D.I.C. and marching group of the 2nd D.B., to reinforce the French soldiers released from Japanese internment).
Historical background: ❝In the wake of the Viet Minh ‘August Revolution’ of 1945 leading to the proclamation of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam (DRV), the French government began negotiations with both the Viet Minh and the Nationalist Chinese for a return of the French army to Vietnam north of the 16th parallel. In this transaction, the Viet Minh revealed themselves willing to accept French rule to rid Vietnam of Chinese occupation, especially as Ho Chi Minh feared it would become permanent.
Acting upon the March 6,1946 Accords.

Almost immediately (and timed for the Haiphong high tide), French forces under General Philippe Leclerc, the liberator of Paris and French representative to the Japanese surrender in Tokyo, began to arrive by sea and from Yunnan in China overland. Aside from the clash with Chinese forces at Haiphong on March 6,1946, this movement of French forces to new barracks proceeded peacefully. On March 16, Sainteny (1953:190) had gained agreement from the Chinese Nationalist command in Hanoi headed by General Lu Han as to the entry into Hanoi of French forces. Once again, and to the obvious satisfaction of the French community, the tricolor flew in Hanoi. With French troops arriving in Hanoi on March 18, Leclerc quickly established cordial relations with Ho Chi Minh. A military convention [sic, should be "agreement"] (Salan-Giap) spelled out details on troop deployments and movements (although was silent on Cochinchina). French forces moved into Hanoi, Haiphong, Hong Gai, Nam Dinh, Hue, Danang, Hai Doung, Dien Bien Phu and border regions. With Leclerc personally escorted in the streets of Hanoi by Giap, the Vietnamese showed constraint [sic, should be “restraint”].❞ Gunn G.C.
