During the Cambodian genocide from 1975 to 1979, the U.S. response was largely marked by inaction and a lack of direct intervention. The U.S. had previously supported the Khmer Rouge's rise to power as a counter to the Vietnamese influence in the region, but once the genocide began, the U.S. did not take significant measures to stop it. Humanitarian efforts were limited, and the U.S. government remained focused on its geopolitical interests in Southeast Asia. After the fall of the Khmer Rouge, the U.S. did eventually provide some support for the Cambodian government and engaged in efforts to bring attention to the atrocities that occurred.
