In 1960, the National Liberation Front of South Vietnam was established. In early 1961, she was assigned by the Unification Committee to participate in diplomatic activities for the Front and changed her name from Yen Sa (the alias she had used since 1948) to Nguyen Thi Binh to keep it secret and to make it easier for the international community to pronounce her name.
From here, the world learned about female politician Nguyen Thi Binh as Head of the delegation of the National Liberation Front of South Vietnam, then the Provisional Revolutionary Government of the Republic of South Vietnam participating in the Four-Party Conference on ending the war and restoring peace in Vietnam in Paris (France).
On January 27, 1973, in Paris, the Agreement on Ending the War and Restoring Peace in Vietnam was signed. It was the result of the longest and most arduous diplomatic struggle in the history of Vietnamese diplomacy, with 202 public meetings and 24 private meetings over a period of 4 years and 9 months.
