Non-Aligned Movement

비동맹 운동

An international movement of states that pursued independent foreign policy without formal alignment to either Cold War power bloc. Founded on principles agreed at the 1955 Bandung Conference and formally established at the 1961 Belgrade Conference, it was led by Yugoslavia's Tito, India's Nehru, Egypt's Nasser, Ghana's Nkrumah, and Indonesia's Sukarno. Opposing imperialism, colonialism, and neo-colonialism while advancing self-determination and economic development of newly decolonized states, it remains the second-largest grouping of states after the United Nations.
