Australia, the US, and New Zealand were part of the ANZUS alliance.
The countries are bound throught the ANZUS (Australia,New Zealand and US) pact.
The ANZUS treaty has provided security for both America and New Zealand in the Pacific. It has also strengthened the bonds with the other nations allowing for links (e.g. trade and aid links) to be established. As a result of ANZUS, Australia and America have worked together for future programs such as the war in Iraq. America has complimented Australia in saying it has gained a strong and persistent ally.
New Zealand was part of ANZUS (allied with Australia & US).
NATO, SEATO, nor the UN were utilized in the Vietnam War. The war's controversy had affected the members. However, ANZUS (Australia, New Zealand, United States), even though there were some disagreements there to, did take effect. ANZUS, created in '51, called for defense to protect nations in the immediate Pacific area, thus ANZUS responded. SEATO would've done the same thing, however the SEATO members of Britain, France, and Pakistan refused to deploy troops to Vietnam; thus, again, ANZUS had to hold the line.
New Zealand was a part of the ANZUS Pact which called for mutual support.
