ABSTRACT

The practical significance of neutrality, neutralism, non-alignment and development as forces in international politics in the Cold War period and after is not easy to measure. In Europe 'neutrality' remained the privilege of a few small Western-oriented countries that played only a minimal role in the diplomatic, military, economic and political evolution of the Cold War. While neutrality is often associated in the post-1945 period with the Third World, it is important to realize that the roots of the concept lay in Europe and the European states system. Indeed, one of the most overlooked issues in studies of the Cold War in Europe is the role of the neutral countries. Relations between the United States and India worsened as the Cold War in Asia heightened. United Nations (UN) an international organization established after the Second World War to replace the League of Nations. Congo Crisis the civil war that took place in the Congo from 1960 to 1963.
