After losing the presidential election of 1960 and the California gubernatorial election of 1962, Nixon staged one of the most remarkable political comebacks in American history, winning the presidency in 1968. \u003cspan class=\"contents\" data-content-reference-start=\"1763\" data-content-reference-end=\"1796\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp data-start=\"1820\" data-end=\"2285\"\u003eNixon's presidency encompassed some of the defining events of the Cold War era. His administration pursued \"Vietnamization,\" gradually reducing American troop levels in Vietnam, and the Paris Peace Accords were signed in January 1973, ending direct American military involvement in the war. His foreign policy also became closely associated with detente and a major restructuring of American relations with the communist world. \u003cspan class=\"contents\" data-content-reference-start=\"2226\" data-content-reference-end=\"2245\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp data-start=\"2287\" data-end=\"2853\"\u003eAmong Nixon's most consequential achievements was his historic \u003cstrong data-start=\"2350\" data-end=\"2398\"\u003e1972 visit to the People's Republic of China\u003c\/strong\u003e, which transformed the diplomatic relationship between Washington and Beijing. That same year, Nixon traveled to the Soviet Union for the Moscow summit, during which his administration pursued strategic arms limitations and other agreements with Soviet leaders.

Facing near-certain impeachment and removal, Nixon announced his resignation on August 8, 1974, and left office the following day. He remains the only United States president to have resigned the presidency. \u003cspan class=\"contents\" data-content-reference-start=\"3427\" data-content-reference-end=\"3459\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp data-start=\"3511\" data-end=\"3765\"\u003eNixon subsequently spent nearly two decades as a former president, writing books and gradually reestablishing himself as an elder commentator on international affairs.
