What goal did the U.S. have fighting in vietnam
viktelen [127]
Hey there!

Their goal was to fight and Vietnam and win, as in any other war for the US. This was because of something very important called the Domino Effect, created by Dwight D Eisenhower, which stated that if one country adopted communism, other countries surrounding it and eventually the world would start too.

The US couldn't have communism spread. That's why we were enemies with the Soviets and created a trade embargo on Cuba in 1960. Our goal was to get rid of communism once and for all.

However, on March 29th, 1973, when  President Nixon withdrew all remaining troops from Vietnam, leaving America's first defeat, the Domino Effect could have happened and been quite bad. However, it did not spread around Indo-China, and few countries use communism today.

Hope this helps!

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Postwar anxiety increased in 1949 after a series of startling events showcased that the Cold War could be just as intense as a "hot" war. The events that occurred in 1949, causing the world to anticipate renewed military action were the following:

The signing of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization(NATO) in April.

The first detonation of an atomic bomb by the Soviet Union in the month of May.

Mao Tse Dong establishing the Communist government of the People´s Republic of China in October.

These events increased the tension in the so-called Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union. These two superówers competed in the arms race, the space race, and the spread of Communism/containment of Communism, generating so much tension in the world.
