Abstract

This chapter deals with Yugoslavia’s performance in the United Nations during the early 1950s, when issues of peace and opposition to aggression were at their height in international deliberations. During that time, as Yugoslavia was also facing potential aggression from the Soviet bloc, a number of Asian and African newly liberated nations had started to share similar ideas and aspirations with Yugoslavia: finding means of preserving independence and forestalling foreign interference and interventionism. The United Nations had become the main stage for organizing a new wide coalition against the dictate of the great powers and their immediate threat to world peace and stability.
