But since that's all been defunded by DOGE then by your own argument, it doesn't count any more. Ignoring history is a good way to repeat it, just because it didn't happen this year.
Do you remember the last Vietnam War? Oh no, not the one you're thinking of: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sino-Vietnamese_War
Several hundred thousand Chinese troops invaded Vietnam with 500 tanks in 1979.
In response to Vietnam invading Cambodia... Yeah...
That's not exactly imperialist aggression is it?
Vietnam invaded Cambodia in December 1978 primarily to stop relentless border incursions, attacks on villages, and massacres of Vietnamese civilians by the Khmer Rouge regime. This led to the end of Khmer Rouge, which was a VERY GOOD THING. China was HELPING the Khmer Rouge, so yes, it actually was rather "imperialist aggressiony". I haven't encountered a Khmer Rouge apologist in a long time.
Interestingly the same excuse Russia used for invading Donetsk and Lunhansk

That's not how the Vietnamese see it.
