Ho Chi Minh might have believed that the U.S. would support his declaration of independence for Vietnam primarily because he had U.S. support during his fight with Japan. During World War II, Ho Chi Minh and his forces, the Viet Minh, received assistance from the U.S. in their efforts against Japanese occupation. This historical context may have led him to expect continued support for Vietnam's independence after the war.
