in 1975, the US pulled out of Vietnam because of the unpopularity of US involvement there. Then Vietnam fell into communism along with Cambodia and Laos. After Angola and Mozambique got independence from portugal, those countries fell into communism. Benin also fell into communism.The US also widely outspent by the soviets in defense and were losing ground on the economy. The US had weak morale because of the aftermath of the Vietnam War and Watergate. So was 1975 the lowpoint of the west and US in particular during the cold war?
