Kissinger did not end the war, or help in ending it, though. He did eventually help negotiate a withdrawal of US troops from Vietnam, but only after having participated in several serious war crimes, as well as helping to sabotage the 1968 Paris peace talks, as a political move to get clout with the Nixon campaign in the first place. Famously, Lê Đức Thọ, who was jointly given the Nobel with Kissinger, refused to accept it, partially because peace had not in fact been achieved.
