But the president later mostly insist on a relaxing, moral way of containment. Still, the Soviet Union broke up and the Warsaw Pack disintegrate in 1991 The word containment is associated most strongly with the policies of U.S. President Harry S. Truman (1945-53), including the establishment of the North Atlantic Treaty Organizaton, a mutual defense pact. Containment had particular influence on the foreign policies of President Lyndon Johnson (1963-69), especially those concerning Vietnam. President Richard Nixon (1969-74) promoted a variation of containment he called détente, or relaxation of tension. In 1973-74, the U.S. Congress, questioning both the need for and morality of containment in Vietnam, cut off aid to the South Vietnamese government. President Jimmy Carter (1976-81) emphasized human rights rather than anti-communism Despite these departures, central aspects of containment, including NATO and nuclear deterrence, remained in effect even after the end of the Cold War in 1989 and the breakup of the Soviet Union in 1991.
