Agreement On Ending The War and Restoring Peace in Vietnam - Subsequent To The Agreement

Subsequent To The Agreement

The war began after the RVN's refusal to hold elections, and the Hanoi government exploited its military advantage in the power vacuum created by the withdrawal of the United States, rather than giving its adversary a vote that it had itself been denied. Conflict resumed early in 1975, the People's Army of Viet Nam (PAVN) entering Saigon on April 30, 1975.

    No one can doubt, that the convention for the distinction of property, and for the stability of possession, is of all circumstances the most necessary to the establishment of human society, and that after the agreement for the fixing and observing of this rule, there remains little or nothing to be done towards settling a perfect harmony and concord.
    David Hume (1711–1776)
