Nixon´s Influence on the Vietnam War

It seems that peace with North Vietnam became more realistic in the near future in the late stage of the Johnson administration. Johnson recognizes that he has reached the limit of involvement in the United States. "In the fall of 1968, North Vietnam made a thorough bombing and began peace negotiations in Paris. I foresee at least a glimpse of peace, and the case began to develop. However, as the heritage of Richard Nixon spreads, the situation changed dramatically.

The main focus of work at Nixon 's office is diplomacy. His foreign policy agenda, Nixonism calls for indirect support to American allies during the Cold War, "Vietnamization" of the Vietnam War is the most prominent example of this policy. Nixon finished US participation in the Vietnam War and his government successfully achieved negotiating settlement. Nixon became the first US President to visit the People's Republic of China, using the China - Soviet division, and significantly changing the essence of the Cold War. Nixon also adopted a mitigation strategy with the Soviet Union and formulated the first two innovative arms control treaties, the anti ballistic missile treaty and SALT I.

Most political historians agreed that the campaign of Richard Nixon cooperated with the South Vietnamese government to expand the Vietnam War on the eve of the 1968 US presidential election. Essentially, Nixon's aide worried that President Lyndon Johnson will speed up the peace talks with Vietnam to help the 1968 Democratic candidate Hubert Humphrey be elected. As the current document is unclassified, Republican famous activist Anna Chenno secretly contacted the Saigon Vietnamese leader. According to records, Chennault told Nguyen Van Thieu, South Vietnam leader, that Nixon's proposal is better than LBJ's proposal. After that, the Vietnamese government began to postpone peace talks with the United States. This appeal helped Nixon win the elections, historians believed, and expanded the fierce war.
