उत्तर
- CENTO stands for Central Treaty Organisation.
- CENTO, formerly known as the 'Baghdad Pact' or Middle East Treaty Organisation (METO), is a treaty among four nations namely, Turkey, Pakistan, Iran, and England.
- This treaty was signed on 24th February 1955. Iraq joined later.
- America started providing the member nations of CENTO economic and military aid.
- America feared that if Soviet Russia attacked any of the member nations, then all member nations should fight it collectively.
- But in reality, none of the member nations had the military capacity to fight.
- Except for the United Kingdom, the rest of the three were in need of military and technological aid, but America was too involved to pay attention.
- Hence, the other members of CENTO were not satisfied. They wanted to withdraw from the treaty and act independently.
- Iran and Pakistan withdrew from the treaty; hence, CENTO became non-operational.
