Nixon, Richard

Richard Nixon was the 37th President of the United States, serving from 1969 to 1974. He was known for ending U.S. involvement in the Vietnam War, establishing Nixon Doctrine, and visiting China, which reshaped international relations. Nixon’s presidency was marred by the Watergate scandal, a political scandal involving a break-in at the Democratic National Committee headquarters and subsequent cover-up, leading to his resignation—the only U.S. president to do so. His tenure significantly impacted U.S. domestic policies and foreign affairs, leaving a complex legacy of diplomatic achievements and political controversy.
