- The thesis clarifies the formation and development process of the Khmer Rouge regime and the genocidal crimes that this regime committed against the people of Cambodia, Vietnam and Thailand. - The thesis analyzes the justice of Vietnam's sending troops into Cambodia, and at the same time clarifies the actions that Vietnam took to help the Cambodian people escape the genocidal regime.

10. Summary of the findings of the thesis:
- The thesis clarifies the establishment and development of Khmer Rouge as well as the genocide it brought upon the Cambodians, Vietnamese and Thai people.
- The thesis analyzes rationales for Vietnamese troops trespassing Cambodian border and remaining within their territory for about 10 years. Furthermore, it clarifies the activities taken by the Vietnamese to help the Cambodians get out of Khmer Rouge genocide.
- Although it concerns historical matters, the thesis still holds high journalism values since the Extraordinary Chambers in the Courts of Cambodia (ECCC) is still under the process of convicting those who committed the Genocide.
- The time when Vietnam brought troops to help the Cambodians getting out of Khmer Rouge Genocide was considered the most conflicting period in the history of Cambodia – Vietnam relations. Vietnam was politically boycotted and economically embargoed, and accordingly fell into a long-lasting series of crisis. Therefore, analyzing the actions and policies taken by Vietnam in this period not only justifies the history, but also helps Vietnam to draw relevant lessons for current foreign affairs policies.
