11. Why did the United States support France in Vietnam? A. The United States needed French approval for a trade agreement. B. The United States supported France's claim to a colonial empire. C. The United States needed French support in Western Europe. D. The United States was honoring an old agreement with France.

Respuesta :

The answer is: C. The United States needed French support in Western Europe.

The reason is: They viewed the conflict as a colonial war and a continuation of the First Indochina War against forces from France and later on the United States. The U.S. government viewed its involvement in the war as a way to prevent a communist takeover of South Vietnam.

Hope that helps! :)
