Commemoration of the Paris Peace Accords

Nixon Library invites the community to a free live virtual event Commemorating the 50th Anniversary of the Paris Peace Accords.

The signing of the Paris Peace Accords on January 27, 1973 was a milestone in the Nixon administration’s attempts to end the war in Vietnam.  Fifty years later, scholars and historians of the Vietnam War will commemorate, examine and discuss the grand strategy that the Nixon administration enacted in its attempt to end the war in Vietnam, secure the peace, and repatriate the American prisoners of war, as well as the years of negotiation that led to the Paris Peace Accords.

This live, virtual event features two panel discussions: President Nixon’s Grand Strategy for Vietnam and Seeking Peace in Vietnam, 1969-1973, as well as keynote remarks from Dr. Mark Moyar, William P. Harris Chair of Military History at Hillsdale College.
