Answer:
1- A
2- D
Explanation:
1- The purpose of the policy of nonalignment was to separate smaller independent nations from the Cold War superpowers.
The Movement of Non-Aligned Countries was a group of States formed during the Cold War, the geopolitical and ideological conflict of the second half of the 20th century, that manifested itself against the indirect confrontation between the Soviet Union and the United States. The purpose of the Movement of Non-Aligned Countries was to maintain its neutral position and not to ally with any of the superpowers of the Cold War.
2- The South and Southeast Asian nations accepted both the U.S. & the U.S.S.R. policies of expanding the Cold War, but both systems clashed in their territories.
After the end of World War II, Southeast Asia was immersed in a series of events and nationalist movements, driven by the communists. For nine years, Western powers had noted with concern the consolidation of the communist regime in China, continued by the Korean War and the triumph of Vietnam in Indochina. The situation in Southeast Asia had become a real concern. For that reason, in 1954 the Western powers and the governments of some countries of the region decided to sign a pact. In this way, on September 8 of that same year, the concurrence of Australia, France, Great Britain, New Zealand, Pakistan, the Philippines, Thailand and the United States signed the Manila Pact, which later became "Southeast Asia Collective Defense Treaty "or SEATO. In this way, in Southeast Asia there were representatives of both sides of the Cold War.
