As an important component of the world anti-imperialist and independent forces, the non-aligned movement serves as a powerful motive force in the struggle for global independence.
Through history, the non-aligned movement has fulfilled its duty as a powerful motive force for global independence in the progressive people’s struggle for independence, peace and progress from the first period of its development up to now.
The non-aligned movement serves a powerful motive force in the struggle for global independence because it has been expanded and strengthened its ranks constantly with developing countries and progressive countries aspiring after anti-imperialism and independence in the whole period of its historical development. Unlike the first period of its formation, it has become the most wide-ranging international movement covering many population and over 120 countries in the 5 continents of the world.
It is also because it has made active efforts to repulse the imperialist aggression and intervention and settle all problems arising in the international arena in keeping with demand and interests of the progressive people, with anti-imperialism and independence as its basic ideal and banner.
Balance of forces between the progressive and the reactionary has been changed remarkably and the global independence process promoted dynamically by the definite position and positive role of the non-aligned movement as a powerful motive force for global independence.
In the present century, too, the non-aligned movement becomes the progressive movement that opposes all sorts of domination and subordination and aspires after independence, the strong revolutionary force of the present era that confronts with imperialism and the powerful force for global independence.
Today the non-aligned movement holds full-fledged position in the international arena and its role is being enhanced as the days go by.
