Natalia Mckenzie · Answer 1

e) represented the global reach of Cold War divisions.

Explanation:

The Southeast Asia Treaty Organization (SEATO) is an example of the global reach that the divisions caused by the Cold War had. The organization was modelled on the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), and was an equivalent organization in Asia designed to contain communism (in this case, as a reaction towards Communist China). The main force behind the creation of SEATO was President Dwight D. Eisenhower's Secretary of State John Foster Dulles.

The Southeast Asia Treaty Organization (SEATO) was created to replaced NATO in Europe.

Explanation:

The Southeast Asia Treaty Organization (SEATO) was an international organization created on September 8, 1954 by the Manila pact, with the aim of ensuring the economic development and political stability of the region, including collective defense. With the establishment of its headquarters in Bangkok, Thailand (February 1955) its main objective was to block possible communist advances in Southeast Asia. In addition, SEATO planned to be an Asian version of NATO, in which the military forces of each of its members would be coordinated to jointly defend each of the signatory countries. SEATO used parts of the armed forces of each member country for joint annual military maneuvers.
