Whakakiia te rerenga e whai ake nei: I whakarerea e Vietnam i te tau 1978, e rapu ana i te awhina ohaoha hei putea i te Mahere Tuarua o te Tau-Mahi. I te tau 1978 i hainatia e Lê Duẩn me Phạm Văn Đồng he Tiriti mo te Hoahoatanga me te Whakawhanaungatanga Whakawhanaungatanga me te USSR mo te 25 tau. I raro i te tiaki a te Soviet, Vietnam
i whakaekehia a Kampuchea. Hei whakautu, ka whakaekehia a Vietnam e Haina. He maha nga turanga i riihi a Vietnam ki te Soviet Union hei tiaki i tona rohe mai i Haina. I rangona ko tētahi o ngā tono a Haina mō te rangimarie ko te whakamutu i te āwhina a te Soviet ki Vietnam. I Ahia, he rite tonu te mahi a Vietnam ki a Cuba i Amerika Latina: i tautokohia e ia nga roopu hurihuri o te rohe, he tari matua mo te communism Soviet-style. I tautoko a Vietnam i te whakaekenga a te Soviet o Afghanistan, ā, i whiwhi ia i te $3 miriona i ia rā hei āwhina hōia.
