About the End of the Vietnam Conflict or Vietnam Peace Day

Ends: Jan 27, 2025
DESCRIPTION:
Vietnam Peace Day on January 27th commemorates the end of the Vietnam Conflict with the signing of the Paris Peace Accords on January 27, 1973, by representatives of the United States, North Vietnam, South Vietnam, and the Viet Cong. It is a day to reflect on the peace agreement that led to the withdrawal of American troops from Vietnam, signaling the end of one of the most contentious conflicts of the 20th century.
This agreement marked a pivotal moment in the Vietnam Conflict. The accords declared a ceasefire across North and South Vietnam and established terms that led to the withdrawal of US military forces.
While the ceasefire and the withdrawal of American troops did not immediately result in peace—fighting continued in various parts of Vietnam until 1975—the signing of the Paris Peace Accords was a significant step toward ending the conflict. The last American died in the war 11 hours before the parties signed the agreement.
In the United States, Vietnam Peace Day is a day for veterans, their families, and communities to come together to remember the past and to consider the lessons learned from Vietnam. In Vietnam, the day is not marked.
It is important to note that America could have avoided the Vietnam Conflict. Following the First World War, a young Vietnamese diplomat, Hồ Chí Minh, attempted to ally with the United States in 1919 at Versailles based on the 1789 French Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen. At the time, the Japanese and French occupied and threatened the small nation.
President Wilson refused, forcing the nation to turn toward communism in search of allies to support them in ending the occupation. It was a decision that would eventually lead to the decades-long conflict, which was never referred to officially as a "war" but ultimately resulted in the death of millions.
