Well, World War II being in living memory might have had something to do with it. A WWII veteran was president as late as the end of the Cold War. It was also in living memory for the rest of Asia- Japanese rearmament would have been a bad look for the capitalist bloc, especially when there was a propaganda war to win in Vietnam.
