South Vietnamese soldier and politician. In Japan, he is called Nguyen Van Thieu. He was born in Ninh Thuan, Central Vietnam. He started out as an army officer, but rose to prominence in 1963 when he participated in the coup against Ngo Dinh Diem, and became president in 1967. He then opposed North Vietnam and the National Liberation Front with the support of the United States, and ousted Vice President Nguyen Cao Ky and other opposition forces. He was re-elected president in 1971 and established a dictatorship. However, after the signing of the Paris Agreement in 1973, he lost the military backing of the United States, and faced the rise of the anti-government movement in 1974.
