What India s Relationship with Iran Means for America

What India’s Relationship with Iran Means for America No matter how warm relations between Washington and Delhi become, history shows that some level of non-alignment will always be part of India’s policies. Back in 1946, while an interim government cabinet member, India’s first prime minister, Jawaharlal Nehru, advocated keeping India “away from the power politics of groups, aligned against one another.” Later, the country’s defense minister, Krishna Menon, used the term non-aligned movement in a 1953 speech before the United Nations. Nehru then used the term again in a 1954 speech in Sri Lanka. Ever since, successive Indian governments, irrespective of their political bent, have hewed to a formal non-aligned policy, even though recent years have seen a distinct warming of relations with the West against a backdrop of sharpening India-China competition.
