...India's V. K. Krishna Menon declared that while his government would be only too happy to negotiate its border dispute with Red China, it would do so only after Communist troops had been withdrawn from Indian territory. In New Delhi, Prime Minister Nehru spent the week consulting other nations that are also at odds with Peking.
