  • The Non-Aligned Movement is a grouping formed for the common interests of these countries after independence.

  • The Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union after World War II actually played a major role in the formation of the Non-Aligned Movement.

  • Respect for the sovereignty of each member state

  • Non-aggression

  • Non-interference in the internal affairs of other countries

  • Ensure equality and mutual benefit

  • Peaceful coexistence

  • In July 1956, Jawaharlal Nehru (India), Marshal Tito (Yugoslavia), Gamal Abdul Nasser (Egypt), and Ahmad Sukarno (Indonesia) met in Brijuni, Yugoslavia, to outline the framework for the grouping.

  • Year of formation of the Non-Aligned Movement - 1961
