If we take a deeper look at the events leading up to the war and some history of Vietnam, we could see that they maybe shouldn’t or wouldn’t get the international support Bosnia thinks they should get. This is for three reasons. I am going to look at this as nonbiased as possible.

-Not a good friend of NATO? I doubt China is too high up either.
 * Vietnam is not a good friend of NATO, the alliance that houses most of the great powers.
 * Vietnam themselves absorbed two countries with force. Just because they were weak doesn’t excuse the fact they did it.
 * Xi China guaranteed the independence of Laos and Cambodia. Of course, this shouldn’t be trusted, but China has more influence than you think in the world stage. Look at real life. The WHO praised them for transparency during this crisis! I think they might have more influence than we think.

-And you puppeted two nations for seemingly no reason, launched an unprovoked invasion of Mongolia, and invaded me to "avenge" two nations that you had little to no connections to. And if it was because of my nukes, I had already told you that they were not meant for you. Heck, I even offered my services to you and you denied.

-My invasion of Laos and Cambodia is no different than what happened in Yugoslavia, the Middle East, or basically anywhere in Africa. The colonial powers messed up our area, and when they left they left it a war waiting to happen. All I was doing was re-uniting Indochina.

-China may have worldwide influence, but that doesn't mean other countries still won't take up arms against you. NATO, the EU, and all the other alliances bent on preserving "democracy" and freedom would probably align with me over you. China ranks much lower on the Democracy Index than Vietnam, and you probably dropped since your authoritarian reforms. Vietnam, while not very high up either, is making democratic reforms and improving. For example, when we annexed Laos and Cambodia, we didn't forget about the people there and treat them as lesser beings. We gave each of them equal rights and political power as the Vietnamese.

-Lastly, what Belarusball says goes. If he says I get international assistance from Japan, South Korea, Thailand, and Indonesia, then I get international assistance from Japan, South Korea, Thailand, and Indonesia.
