Robertson testified. One version was that he said the United States must maintain its “posture of strength” in Asia, rather than “dominate Asia.” “Whatever the wording, the meaning is the same,” Nehru said. “It is known thit India’s policy ’ in regard to the people’s govern- ment of China differs from that of| the United States.
