The Brioni Meeting (Serbo-Croatian: Brionski sastanak) between President of Egypt Gamal Abdel Nasser, Prime Minister of India Jawaharlal Nehru and their host President of Yugoslavia Josip Broz Tito took place on the Brijuni Islands, PR Croatia, FPR Yugoslavia on 19 July 1956.[1] The conference was one of the major initiatives among countries unaffiliated to neither Eastern or Western Bloc on their road to the establishment of the Non-Aligned Movement at the 1961 Belgrade Summit.[2][3] 120 Yugoslav and foreign journalists followed the meeting.[4]
The three leaders signed a document known as the Brioni Declaration expressing that: "Peace cannot be achieved via division, but via striving for collective security on the global scale. Achieved by the expansion of the area of freedom, as well as through the ending of domination of one country over another."[1][5] French media criticized Yugoslav hosts for giving prominent role to the issue of liberation struggle in French Algeria yet British analysts noticed Nasser's insistence on the issue, Nehru's moderation efforts and Tito's decision not to meet with representatives of the Algerian delegates during the conference.[6]
