Vietnam war started with Versailles peace conference in 1919 where Ho Chi Minh showed up
As a member of the 1991–1993 Senate Select Committee on POW/MIA Affairs, chaired by fellow Vietnam War veteran and Democrat, John Kerry,
 McCain investigated the Vietnam War POW/MIA issue, to determine the fate of U.S. service personnel listed as missing in action during the Vietnam War.
 The committee's unanimous report stated there was "no compelling evidence that proves that any American remains alive in captivity in Southeast Asia."[106]
 Helped by McCain's efforts, in 1995 the U.S. normalized diplomatic relations with Vietnam.  
In January 2007, Congress approved Permanent Normal Trade Relations (PNTR) for Vietnam.
