In 1961, President John F. Kennedy initiated a bold new policy of engaging states that had chosen to remain nonaligned in the Cold War. While initially successful, colonial and regional conflicts, disputes over foreign aid and the Vietnam War led to its failure, paving the way for a lasting hostility between the United States and the Third World.
