Why DSM V has removed OCD from anxiety disorder?

I don't know the exact reason but I think its probably because when it was considered an anxiety disorder it meant that anxiety or anxious thoughts CAUSED OCD. But actually the inability to stop the obsessive thoughts or the inability to stop carrying out the compulsions might lead to anxiety. So anxiety is actually an effect of OCD and not a cause. I may be wrong though.
