And therefore I would ask the Congress to take actions now to back up our dialogue with action to show Vietnam that these are no longer empty words.
April 30, 1975, was the day of infamy for the millions of Vietnamese whose future was dashed when their freedom was extinguished by the brutal assault on South Vietnam by Communist forces in blatant violation of the 1973 Paris Peace Accord.
The passage of the Vietnam Human Rights Act through the House speaks very loudly of where we are as a government.
What transpired in Vietnam after the Communist takeover could only be described by analogously linking the tragedy of Vietnam to such unconscionable events in human history as the Holocaust, the Killing Fields and the Great Purge.
