The Vietnam War: American Withdrawal
America withdrew in 1973, and later would institute a trade embargo on Vietnam. The United States did not have mush of a choice with the war, and eventually they had to give in to the anti-war movements. They never really had a choice in Vietnam, either. They could invade Hanoi, but that would bring the Chinese in the war. They couldn't hold off the North Vietnamese forever, because the North Vietnamese could just keep attacking until America withdrew.
North Vietnam cannot
defeat or humiliate
the United States.
Only Americans can do that.
