The mission of President Nixon's Vietnamization plan was to have the South Vietnamese troops do more of the fighting, with the ultimate goal being the eventual removal of American troops from the country. The Vietnam War lasted from 1955 to 1975.
Richard M. Nixon introduced the policy of Vietnamization in his speech on November 3, 1969.

A synonym for the Vietnamization program is "de-Americanization." This term reflects the strategy of transferring the responsibility for combat operations from U.S. forces to South Vietnamese troops, aiming to reduce American involvement in the Vietnam War. The goal was to empower the South Vietnamese military to take on a greater role in the conflict while gradually withdrawing U.S. troops.
