ORIGIN OF NON- ALLIGNED MOVEMENT

[Pablo james]

It is an international movement drawn from different countries of the world and mostly third world countries in Africa, Latin America,the Caribbean, Asia, Europe etc. The major aim of this movement is the adoption of a non- confrontational posture or approach to world issues. The founding fathers of this movement_ Josef Tito of Yugoslavia, jawarahal Nehru of India, Gamal Abdel Nasser of Egypt etc. They met in Yugoslavia between 18th and 19 the of june, 1956 to discuss the rising tension in the world and the effect of this to world Peace and security. Also,it was a  reaction to the solvet Union and the United States of America as the two greatest world powers and subsequently,the emergence of the era of the cold war between the super powers. The coming together of 25 states at the conference called by Tito in Belgrade, Yugoslavia in 1961, eventually saw the formation of non-aligned movement.
DO YOU THINK THIS NON- ALLIGNED MOVEMENT IS STILL STRONG OR POWERFUL?
Reasonable comments will be appreciated.

with 2/3rds vote of the UN they are powerful
they get to temper down some over reaching policies of certain blocs of UN

they are not talked about at the UN in media. but then again the other blocs are not either. the media representation of the UN is independant states finding unity.

yes the large economic blocks of US/UK/EU have one agenda. but without the non-aligned movements general acceptance the US/UK/EU bloc cant really do much.

this makes the US/EU/UK bloc not create over reaching policies of control. and makes them have a few more morals and ethics if US/EU/UK want to get anything accepted into policy

yes there is bribery and corruption like 'donating' aid to non-aligned movement countries to sway there vote
yes some policies have slipped in that have hurt their nations. but overall without the non-aligned nations. there would have been far more bad policies passed.

they are not collaborating to over power the economic bloc. they are there to prevent the economic block overpowering them

its not perfect. but its something
