During the Cold War, many countries chose to become nonaligned as a strategy to maintain independence and avoid entanglement in the ideological conflicts between the United States and the Soviet Union. Leaders in newly independent nations, particularly in Africa and Asia, sought to assert their sovereignty and prioritize national interests over alignment with either superpower. The Non-Aligned Movement, established in 1961, provided a platform for these countries to collaborate and promote peace, development, and mutual respect without being dominated by the rival blocs. This approach allowed them to navigate the geopolitical landscape while advocating for a multipolar world.
