In a legal battle against agrochemical firms for the use of Agent Orange during the Vietnam War, Tran To Nga, a French-Vietnamese woman, faced another setback in a Paris court. Despite her claims of harm caused by the herbicide, the court ruled in favor of the companies’ immunity status, denying her compensation.
Agent Orange, deployed between 1962 and 1971, affected 4 million individuals in Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia, leading to severe health issues. Despite evidence linking Nga’s illnesses to Agent Orange exposure, only military veterans have received compensation for its effects.
Campaign groups estimate that Agent Orange caused significant harm, with Vietnam attributing severe birth defects to the chemical. Nga, suffering from various illnesses related to Agent Orange exposure, continues her legal battle for justice.
