The correct answer is that what led the Soviet Union to establish the Warsaw Pact was that West Germany joined NATO in 1955.

The Treaty of Friendship, Cooperation and Mutual Assistance, better known as the Warsaw Pact, was a military cooperation agreement signed on May 14, 1955 by the countries of the Eastern Bloc. Designed under the leadership of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR), its express purpose was to counteract the threat of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), and in particular the rearmament of the German Federal Republic, to which the Paris Agreements allowed to reorganize their armed forces and join the NATO. The Pact was dissolved on July 1, 1991.

What led the Soviet Union to establish the Warsaw Pact was the fact that West Germany joined NATO.

The Pact, also knowns as the Treaty of Friendship, was signed in Warsaw in May 1955. This was a collective treaty between the Soviet Union and seven satellite states of Central and Eastern Europe. The Warsaw Pact was mainly implemented as a reaction to the integration of West Germany into NATO in 1955 but it also was part of a strategy to maintain military control in Central and Eastern Europe.
