Original wrappers. 4to. (27 x 19 cm). In English. 15 p. Uncommon pamphlet of the declaration that "The PRG is not a government in South Vietnam"  in the last years of the Vietnam War (1954-1975), consisting of three parts, published one year after the PRG was separated from both South Vietnam and North Vietnam by the 1973 Paris Peace Treaty as an independent entity was signed, and one year ago it became the nominal government of South Vietnam as the Republic of South Vietnam following the Fall of Saigon on 30 April 1975.   The Provisional Revolutionary Government of the Republic of South Vietnam (Vietnamese: Chinh phu Cach m?ng Lam thôi Công hôa Miên Nam Viêt Nam), was formed on June 8, 1969, by North Vietnam as a purportedly independent shadow government that opposed the government of the Republic of Vietnam (South Vietnam) under President Nguyên Vân Thiêu and then as a country after the Fall of Saigon with the name Republic of South Vietnam from 30 April 1975 to 2 July 1976. "[.] Therefore, out of an abiding respect for truth, and in order to prevent misunderstandings that could be harmful to relations between countries, the Government of the Republic of Viet-Nam deems it necessary to set the record straight, and to show conclusively that the self-proclaimed "Provisional Revolutionary Government of South Viet-Nam" cannot legitimately be considered a real government."
