Cuba Revitalizes Non-Aligned Movement

Havana, Nov 21 (Prensa Latina) Cuba's work as present leader of the
Non-Aligned Countries Movement focuses on revitalizing the group,
according to its ten principles of foundation.

Since September 2006, when the 14th NAM Summit was held in Havana, the
Island has been working to boost and develop the decisions signed in
the meeting's final document, Granma daily noted on Wednesday,
highlighting the significant scope and importance gained by NAM
Coordination Bureau decisions.

In the opening ceremony of the NAM Ministerial Meeting in New York in
September 2006, Cuban Foreign Minister Felipe Perez Roque stressed the
effective coordination of viewpoints among the member countries and
results of joint defense of positions.

He said the presidency would intensify actions that include the
international legal context against all forms of intolerance, which are
reviving with overwhelming force.

Granma used as an example the 118 NAM member states that demanded at
the UN that the United States end the economic, trade and financial
blockade imposed on Cuba for almost 50 years.
