Geneva Conference

The Geneva Conference, held in 1954, was a diplomatic meeting aimed at resolving conflicts in Southeast Asia, particularly regarding Vietnam. It brought together representatives from countries such as the United States, the Soviet Union, and China, along with Vietnam, France, and other nations. The conference sought to address the division of Vietnam into North and South and established principles for international relations and the independence of countries in the region. Ultimately, it highlighted the Cold War tensions and set the stage for future conflicts, particularly the Vietnam War.
