...have asked similar guarantees and the U.S. would have had to refuse them, thus provoking pro-Israeli pressures in the U.S. and blocking Senate ratification of the treaty. At last week's meeting of Baghdad powers in London, Secretary Dulles announced that the U.S. had become a "full partner" with those Baghdad Pact members present at its London meeting...

The Greeks replied that they were merely conferring with a next-door neighbor and Balkan Pact ally (Yugoslavia) and a Mediterranean trading partner (Egypt, where 100,000 Greeks live). The Greeks were undoubtedly looking around for new friends, but this was hardly proof that they were running out on old ones...
