Between 1947 and 1953, our nation was allied with the Soviet Union and was a member of the Eastern Bloc. In 1953, during the premiership of Junichiro Suzuki and two years after the Gandoorese Restoration of Democracy, the alliance with the Soviet Union came to an official end and our nation declared an official stance of neutrality in the Cold War between the West and the East.
Despite this neutrality, however, our nation was considered to be closer to the Western democracies rather than the Eastern authoritarian states between 1953 and the end of the Cold War in 1991, although this was mostly due to fears that we would be thought of as similar to the authoritarian states in the East if we were close to them. (This fear was so entrenched in our government that we actually severed diplomatic relations with most Eastern Bloc states after we ended our alliance with the USSR and didn't restore diplomatic relations with most of them until the mid-70s, early 80s.)
