The 17th sheet of a series of 22 (incomplete). The pictorial exhibition includes quotes by Mao Zedong, photographs and cartoons.

The photographs show Mao Zedong meeting with representatives of the South Vietnamese People's Liberation Front on the rostrum of Tian'anmen Gate. The top photograph shows Mao shaking hands with Ruan Mingfang (阮明芳, Nguyễn Minh Phương), the SVPLF representative in Beijing, in 1965; the bottom photograph shows Mao shaking hands with Xie Minjiao (谢民娇), a fighter, in 1966.

The Mao quotation reads "The people of the world must unite to defeat the American aggressors and all their lackeys; the people of the world must have the courage to fight, not be afraid of difficulties, and march forward wave after wave, then the world must belong to the people. All nightmares will be destroyed."
