Actualité - Non Aligned against Neoliberalism

Franc-Parler publie cet article de Prensa Latina News Agency sur une rencontre du Mouvement des non-alignés à La Havane. Ce 14e Sommet tente de résoudre les problèmes des nations sur la base d'un partenariat pour ainsi aider à construire le monde. Cette pensée va totalement à l'encontre des grandes puissances qui ne font absolument rien pour faire progresser la société au contraire, ils se servent de la "diplomatie" et de la "guerre préventive "pour étendre leur hégémonie.

Havana, Sep 10 (Prensa Latina) Three thousand delegates and guests from over one hundred nations will gather in the Cuban capital as of tomorrow with one central objective in mind: adapt the Non Aligned movement to an international situation as complex as it is demanding the principles on which it was founded.

Forty-five years after its creation, the movement of non aligned nations (NAM) meets at a time when the principles and objectives that gave origin to this association of states are more valid than ever.

If back in Belgrade, 1961, it was difficult for these countries to coexist with the struggle between two superpowers, now unilateralism is dominating world policy. The current international situation is ever more worrying. Problems confronted by developing nations instead of being solved, are increasingly worse.

The Cold War divided a considerable part of humanity into two antagonizing blocs, the haves characterized by possession of nuclear weapons, and those who had none. It became necessary to promote the concept of non alignment. Now, unilateralism dominates international relations and the globalization process runs according to neoliberal patterns, compelling countries of the South to unite, be solidarious and coherent.

The current world order attempts against the fundational principles of the United Nations Organization and to do away with the basis of international law, above all those concerning political independence, sovereignty and equality between the states, non interference in their domestic affairs, non intervention and to ban the use of force, in favor of solving conflicts at the negotiating table.

More than ever, principles of the United Nations run the risk of being replaced by dangerous interventionist policies, in the name of alleged humanitarian motivations or of fighting terrorism. Peace, development, cooperation and democratization of international relations are important goals still to be conquered.

The challenges ahead compels the Movement to adapt to the new world situation without renouncing its basic principles. There is no other association of states of such force, the NAM brings together the majority of world population, mostly the poor and destitute of the planet.

That is why the 14th summit conference presents the urgent need to unite forces, reaffirm its political credibility and face with identity of its own the present day conditions setting forth an agenda that allows the movement to renew its structure and mechanisms, as well as use all the means possible to preserve the principles on which it was created.

Challenges for NAM now focus on being non aligned against neoliberalism, unilateralism and the use of force to solve international conflicts, unite in the struggle against poverty, the defense of self-determination and sovereignty.
