NATO

The old allies organized  U.S., Britain, France, Belgium, the Netherlands, and Luxembourg start the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO). It was an alliance where attacking one of them meant attacking them all. NATO would later grow. Greece and Turkey joined up in 1952, West Germany in 1955. NATO had 15 nations by then. The Soviets set up the Warsaw Pact what made up of the U.S.S.R. and the Eastern European nations. The main purpose was to defend each other from the possibility of communist Soviet Union taking control of their nation. The NATO was used to settle any disputes during the cold war.
The NATO not only helped keep peace with russia but also kept peace among middle eastern countires.
