<P> The Non-Aligned Movement as an organization was founded on the Brijuni islands in Yugoslavia in 1956, and was formalized by signing the Declaration of Brijuni on July 19th, 1956 . The Declaration was signed by Yugoslavia's president, Josip Broz Tito, India's first prime minister Jawaharlal Nehru and Egypt's second president, Gamal Abdel Nasser . One of the quotations within the Declaration is "Peace cannot be achieved with separation, but with the aspiration towards collective security in global terms and expansion of freedom, as well as terminating the domination of one country over another". According to Rejaul Karim Laskar, an ideologue of the Congress party which ruled India for most part of the Cold War years, the Non-Aligned Movement arose from the desire of Jawaharlal Nehru and other leaders of the newly independent countries of the third world to guard their independence "in face of complex international situation demanding allegiance to either two warring superpowers". </P> <P> The Movement advocates a middle course for states in the developing world between the Western and Eastern Blocs during the Cold War . The phrase itself was first used to represent the doctrine by Indian diplomat V.K. Krishna Menon in 1953, at the United Nations . </P> <P> But it soon after became the name to refer to the participants of the Conference of Heads of State or Government of Non-Aligned Countries first held in 1961 . The term "non-alignment" was established in 1953 at the United Nations . Nehru used the phrase in a 1954 speech in Colombo, Sri Lanka . In this speech, Nehru described the five pillars to be used as a guide for Sino - Indian relations called Panchsheel (five restraints); these principles would later serve as the basis of the Non-Aligned Movement . The five principles were: </P> <Ul> <Li> Mutual respect for each other's territorial integrity and sovereignty . </Li> <Li> Mutual non-aggression . </Li> <Li> Mutual non-interference in domestic affairs . </Li> <Li> Equality and mutual benefit . </Li> <Li> Peaceful co-existence . </Li> </Ul>
