Kissinger denies U.S. vow to aid Vietnam
Former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger told a House subcommittee the United States never made a firm postwar aid commitment to Vietnam. He said Nixon’s letter promising up to 3.25 billion dollars was only a planning figure, not a solid pledge, and no other binding U.S. aid or reparations exist. Kissinger urged waiting for a full accounting of Americans missing and cautioned against prioritizing aid before that.
