the name of the military
alliance between the
Soviet Union and
Eastern European
nations. The official
name of the treaty is
known as "Treaty of
Friendship, Cooperation,
and Mutual Assistance".

4. Some important
provisions of the
treaty:

5. CREATION
In 1955, the USSR with its own fears of a rearmed Germany
created a competing military alliance system, the Warsaw Pact.
It integrated the armed forces of Eastern Europe into a unified
command under the USSR. In addition, the USSR recognized
East Germany as an independent state. It was formally called
the Treaty of Friendship, Cooperation and Mutual Assistance.
The treaty was signed in Warsaw, Poland on May 14, 1955,
that was established to counter the alleged threat from the
NATO alliance.

6. STRUCTURE
The two major organs of
the Warsaw Pact are:
1. Political Consultative

9. How the Warsaw Pact influenced the Cold War
The Warsaw Pact was a
major factor in increasing
tensions between the
countries during the Cold
War. Because of its
opposing alliance with the
NATO, the country
members of both parties
sent out terrible threats,
violent propagandas, and
other measures of open
warfare.

10. What are the reasons why Warsaw Pact lost the war?
The reason Warsaw Pact failed is because of economic problems and
Soviet control of pact was failing.

11. Events that lead to the end of Warsaw Pact
• By late 1980s, anti-Soviet and anti-Communist movements throughout Eastern Europe
began to crack the Warsaw Pact.
• In 1990, East Germany left the Warsaw Past in preparation for its reunification with West
Germany. Poland and Czechoslovakia also indicated their strong desire to withdraw.
• In March 1991, Soviet
military commanders
relinquished their control of
Warsaw Pact forces. A few
months later, the pact's
Political Consultative
Committee met for one
final time and formally
recognized that the
Warsaw Pact was no
more.
