United Front for the Liberation of Oppressed Races

The United Front for the Liberation of Oppressed Races (FULRO, French: Front Uni de Lutte des Races Opprimées, Vietnamese: Mặt trận Thống nhất Đấu tranh của các Sắc tộc bị Áp bức) was an organization within Vietnam, whose objective was autonomy for the Degar (Montagnard) tribes. Initially a political nationalist movement, after 1969 it evolved into a fragmented guerrilla group which carried on an insurgency against, successively, the South Vietnam and Socialist Republic of Vietnam regimes. FULRO fought against both the Communist Viet Cong and anti-Communist South Vietnamese at the same time, being opposed to all forms of Vietnamese rule. China, Cambodia, the United States and some French elements were the primary supporters of FULRO.
