End of the War

The ending of the war came with the withdrawal of U.S troops. Vietnamization is where Nixon continued the gradual pullout of troops and put faith in the ability of the Army of the Republic of Vietnam to assume the burden of war. The Paris Peace Accords were also signed. These papers stated that the U.S would pull out their troops and that war would cease. The conflict was to be settled without any fighting, but rather through discussion between the countries. This allowed North Vietnam to maintain captured land, called for a cease fire, and release all prisoners of war. This brought an end to the Vietnam War.

This is a picture of the New York Times. It was printed on the day the Paris Peace Accords were signed. This was the start of the end of the Vietnam War.
