The plums of neutrality are now dropping into Indian Prime minister Jawaharlal Nehru's lap. Within ten days the foreign ministers of the Western Big Three queued here for talks either before or after their Southeast Asia Treaty Organization deliberations in Karachi. To say that Mr. Nehru's neutrality is based on Gandhian moral principles is only half the truth. In fact his neutrality crystallized sharply after the Chinese coup in Tibet. Since the Tibetan coup, the main objective of his foreign policy has been to extend this neutrality, sometimes called the area of peace.
