The Nixon Doctrine, articulated by President Richard Nixon in 1969, emphasized that the United States would support its allies with military aid but would expect them to take primary responsibility for their own defense. This approach marked a shift from direct American military involvement in conflicts, particularly in Vietnam, to a policy of "Vietnamization," encouraging local forces to manage their own security. The doctrine aimed to reduce U.S. troop presence abroad while still maintaining a commitment to global stability.
