Vietnam lets us have cheap resources(be it material or labor).
That's it. That's always it. If the USSR let the USA come in and let them have cheap resources, we wouldnt have said shit about USSR and the cold war wouldnt have existed. It's literally always a fight for resources.
It's why the China hate is ramped up. from about the 80s until the early 00s China was a great partner thanks to the cheap labor. Now that labor wont be as cheap, and China is way better at being unified and protecting themselves from western interests. Im sure you could make a chart of how many "china will collapse soon" articles have been made as Chinas presence has strengthened.
