The creator of an online petition supporting Vietnamese victims of Agent Orange called on the U.S. government to take responsibility towards the sufferers on Oct. 1.
“I implore you to accept the United States' responsibility for the Vietnamese victims of Agent Orange, in a spirit of decency and justice that is worthy of your office," said Len Aldis, secretary of the Britain-Vietnam Friendship Society in a letter to U.S. President George W. Bush.
The letter was also addressed to U.S. senator John Kerry and United Nations Secretary General Kofi Annan.
