What were the causes of the Warsaw pact?

Answer 1

The Warsaw Treaty is the informal name for the mutual defense Treaty of Friendship, Cooperation and Mutual Assistance commonly known as the Warsaw Pact subscribed by eight communist states in Eastern Europe, which was established at the USSR's initiative and realised on 14 May 1955, in Warsaw, Poland. In the Communist Bloc, the treaty was the military analogue of the Council for Mutual Economic Assistance (CoMEcon), the Communist (East) European economic community. The Warsaw Treaty was the Soviet Bloc's military response to West Germany's May 1955[1] integration to NATO Pact, per the Paris Pacts of 1954

Answer 2

The Warsaw Pact came to be seen as quite a potential militaristic threat, as a sign of Communist dominance, and a definite opponent to American capitalism. The signing of the pact became a symbol of Soviet dominance in Eastern Europe. The pact was used more as a means to keep the Soviet allies under a watchful eye than to actually make and enforce decisions. Eventually, the alliance grew to become a way to build and strengthen military forces throughout the Eastern European countries involved. Conditions of the treaty included "total equality, mutual noninterference in internal affairs, and respect for national sovereignty and independence." The treaty was originally set at twenty years for the pact and another ten years following that, under the condition that none of the members dropped out of the alliance; however, in 1962, Albania stopped participating in the actions of the treaty and formally dropped out of the alliance in 1968.
