US centric[edit]

This redirect is too US centric. Other nations have mutual defense treaties that do not involve the US at all so this should not redirect to a US specific page. TMLutas (talk) 14:14, 4 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Difference with List of military alliances[edit]

What's the difference between this article and List of military alliances? It seems that article contains alliances (as the name implies), but not exclusively mutual defense agreements, which this article seems to exclusively contain? Discombobulates (talk) 23:32, 25 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Merger discussion[edit]

This article is not different from List of military alliances, apart from being less complete. I thus propose that it be merged into List of military alliances. Discombobulates (talk) 23:43, 25 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. It is one of the types of military alliances and it is more than fine to have separate article.178.222.28.51 (talk) 18:06, 19 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
