Nguyễn Phan Long

Nguyễn Phan Long (1889 – 16 July 1960) was a Vietnamese journalist and politician who served as Prime Minister of the State of Vietnam from January to May in 1950. He was dismissed by the Head of State Bảo Đại under pressure from the French colonial authorities, who resented his pro-American and nationalist attitude.

In this Vietnamese name, the surname is Nguyễn, but is often simplified to Nguyen in English-language text. In accordance with Vietnamese custom, this person should be referred to by the given name, Long.
