Being able to stick to his own word was indeed a very good thing for Eisenhower to do because it secured the trust of the American people and gave them confidence in their government. But another important reason why it was good for him to get the ordeal with North Korea out of the way was so he could focus on the many other important issues at hand, such as the war brewing in Vietnam, which would consume America for the subsequent twenty years.
