VOA Interview: Senator John McCain on US-Vietnam Ties
- By Cindy Saine
Forty-one years after the end of one of the most divisive wars in American history, U.S. and Vietnam have never been closer. Arizona Senator John McCain has witnessed the changes in relations firsthand between the two wartime enemies. He was a young Navy aviator during the Vietnam War when his plane was shot down and he spent 5½ years as a prisoner of war, enduring torture and neglect. He talked to VOA's Cindy Saine about U.S.-Vietnam relations.
