The US made more alliances around the Soviet Union for military security. 1951 the US signed an alliance in the pacific region with Australia and New-Zealand (ANZUS Treaty) against the expansion of Japan and the Soviets.
"The name Anzus is derived from the initials of the three signatory nations. As a result of the reestablishment of peace between Japan and the United States in 1951, Australia and New Zealand asked for a treaty making it clear that an attack on any of the three signatory countries would be considered an attack upon all."
In 1955 Britain founded, with the support of the US, the Central Treaty Organisation (CENTO) together with Turkey, Iraq, Iran and Pakistan but without any military assistance. In 1959 Iraq was disbanded, the US joined and in 1979 the CENTO disbanded Iran after the Islamic Revolution.
The Monroe-Doctrine founded in 1947 the Rio-Pact within twenty one American States. It should guarantee peace and security on the American Continent. But also another Council for the Defence of Central America (CONDECA) 1965 of four American States could not defend the communist system in Nicaragua and Cuba.
Not like the NATO disbanded the CENTO and SEATO. SEATO (Southeast Asia Treaty Organization) was an American treaty with Asia. America had the same culture and value order with the European and western States but not with Asian or the near east. Another main reason was that America underestimated the force in nationalism.
Americas Manifest Destiny on a personal level didn't succeed in Asia or Middle East.
