Political Manipulation and Consequences of Summit Conference Postponement

By Prabhudas Bechardas Parekh

Vol. 3September 2000pp. 1–2English

Summary

The text discusses the postponement of a Summit Conference, attributing it to political maneuvering by the "Big Four" nations rather than the U-2 incident. It suggests the deferment aims to secure recognition of the 1492 papal bull dividing the world between Portugal and Spain, indirectly legitimizing European sovereignty over Asia and Africa. Signing an India-Portugal treaty based on a Hague Court verdict would imply India's approval of this division, potentially extending European control globally. The text speculates that without such a treaty, a third world war might ensue, led by European nations to establish dominance, with China's aggression possibly being curbed if India signs the treaty. It also critiques vested interests, arguing they are artificially imposed by foreigners to exploit India, contrasting them with natural guardianship roles like family leadership or public service, which lack self-serving motives. The analysis links Portugal and China as interconnected issues within broader international power dynamics.

Conclusion

The document posits that the postponed Summit Conference serves as a strategic maneuver by the "Big Four" to delay addressing the U-2 incident and instead advance colonial-era political objectives rooted in the 1492 Papal Bull. It argues that the deferment aims to secure India’s formal recognition of Portugal’s historical presence in India, indirectly legitimizing the unjust 1492 division of the world and entrenching European sovereignty over Asian and African nations. By framing the India-Portugal treaty as approval of this division, the document suggests a calculated plan to expand European dominance, potentially avoiding conflict through coerced compliance. It warns that such a treaty could enable unchecked European mastery, rendering the Summit a tool for colonial resurgence rather than international cooperation, with dire consequences for India and other nations.
