During the 1950s and 60s, India played a pivotal role in the Non-Aligned Movement.[248] From left to

In the 1950s, India strongly supported decolonisation in Africa and Asia and played a
leading role in the Non-Aligned Movement.[249] After initially cordial relations with
neighbouring China, India went to war with China in 1962, and was widely thought to
have been humiliated. India has had tense relations with neighbouring Pakistan; the
two nations have gone to war four times: in 1947, 1965, 1971, and 1999. Three of
these wars were fought over the disputed territory of Kashmir, while the fourth, the
1971 war, followed from India's support for the independence of Bangladesh.[250] In
the late 1980s, the Indian military twice intervened abroad at the invitation of the host
country: a peace-keeping operation in Sri Lanka between 1987 and 1990; and an
armed intervention to prevent a 1988 coup d'état attempt in the Maldives. After the
1965 war with Pakistan, India began to pursue close military and economic ties with
the Soviet Union; by the late 1960s, the Soviet Union was its largest arms supplier.[251]
Aside from ongoing its special relationship with Russia,[252] India has wide-
ranging defence relations with Israel and France. In recent years, it has played key
roles in the South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation and the World Trade
Organization. The nation has provided 100,000 military and police personnel to
serve in 35 UN peacekeeping operations across four continents. It participates in
