Hanoi, May 7 -- The first newspaper copies reporting the defeat of French colonialists in the Dien Bien Phu Campaign in the northwestern province of Dien Bien 70 years ago are now exhibited at the Vietnam Press Museum in Hanoi.

The copies were presented to the museum by French collector Jean-Marie Jacquemin, who also donated a book titled "1968 - 1973 Verrieres-le-Buisson: Havre De Paix" (Verrieres-le-Buisson: Safe Haven) and some valuable publications related to Vietnam to the museum.
