What was the main aim of the Non-Aligned Movement?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: To follow an independent foreign policy apart from both Cold War blocs
The Non-Aligned Movement developed during the Cold War among countries that did not want to become formal members of either the U.S.-led or Soviet-led bloc. Its members sought an independent foreign policy, peaceful coexistence, national sovereignty, disarmament and opposition to colonialism. Non-alignment did not mean complete isolation or the creation of a purely military alliance. Thus, option A best expresses its main aim.
