India Will Tilt Toward West In Coming Years Says Talbot
Phillips Talbot, a 3 state student of Indian affairs, told the University of Kansas group that India's foreign policy will move closer to Western nations. He noted India acts as a spokesman for Asian states and is a rising continental power, but internal issues like food shortages and Pakistan relations will shape its global role. He attributed India's stance on Korea to viewing the U S Soviet contest as power, not just ideology, and said India aims to protect its newly won independence while external pressures from China affect the Communist Party's influence.
