The war that never ends

Roland Schmid

Forty years ago, the United States gave up in Vietnam. But the country still suffers from the after-effects of the fighting. During the war, the United States sprayed tons of Agent Orange, and millions of unexploded bombs still lie in the ground. The Vietnamese continue to suffer the consequences to this day.
