We could correct a mistake that we made a long time ago when we refused to help Chang in the late 1930s and early 40s. in his revolt against the French. So he turned to Communism and Russia and China.

You mean Ho? I think the mistake was the coup against Ngo Dinh Diem.

“We could correct a mistake that we made a long time ago when we refused to help Chang in the late 1930s and early 40s. in his revolt against the French.”

I think you've mixed up Chang Kai-Shek, the Chinese Nationalist who fought the Communists under Mao Tse-Tung in the late 1920s through 1949, with Vietnamese Ho Chi Minh. Ho Chi Minh allied his anti-French colonial movement with the Russians (later Chinese) communists against France (1945-1954), and then against South Vietnam and the U.S. from 1954-1975).
