NAM - Special Edition

After WWII the German regime leaded by Adolf Hitler as the common enemy of the former Soviet Union and the United States was defeated, and so some differences accrued between these two countries and some other countries were divided based on this difference and a lot of countries were attracted two one of these blocs, though there were some countries which didn't see themselves committed to any of the Eastern and Western blocs and so they announced their neutrality in the international parties, afterwards these countries formed an organization later known as the Non-Aligned Movement (NAM). Hence the NAM was established during the cold war in 1961 as the biggest united call for political, military, and economic independence by the independent countries.
