1955 CE

A turning point for Nasser is the Conference of the Nonaligned Movement in Bandung, Indonesia in April 1955, where he finds himself the center of attention as a Third World leader, accepted as a colleague by Chinese premier Zhou Enlai, and greeted by crowds in the streets.

Egyptian participation in the conference, along with other former colonies such as India, symbolizes not only the new postcolonial world order but also Egypt's own independence.
