Gli accordi di pace di Parigi furono un trattato internazionale, firmato a Parigi il 27 gennaio 1973 dai rappresentanti degli Stati Uniti e del Vietnam del Sud da un lato, e quelli di Vietnam del Nord e della Repubblica del Sud Vietnam (il governo provvisorio istituito dai guerriglieri vietcong) dall'altro; con tale trattato si pose formalmente fine all'intervento militare statunitense nella guerra del Vietnam, anche se non alla guerra stessa.

Military trucks make their way along a portion of the legendary Ho Chi Minh trail in central Vietnam in 1967. The trail, by which North Vietnamese sent troops, and supplies to the battlefields in South Vietnam, was one of the main contributions leading to the fall of Saigon 30 April 1975. Letting bygones be bygones, the United States and Vietnam have taken modest steps toward a rapprochement a quarter century after the chaotic US departure from Saigon.
