Vietnam could be a good ally against the ChiComs. If we can get them in our corner, despite our past history, that would be a good thing IMHO.
Right now, their leadership is a bunch of old farts who just want to cling to power, but their days are numbered.
Quite agreed.
India would be a great ally too if we could trust them.
Interesting idea. I’ve thought similarly for a long time now.
Viet Nam has been trying hard to be “in our corner” for a couple of decades. Obama disdains them especially for that fact.
