What were the founding ideas and principles of the United Nations?

Fifty years ago, in this very city, the Non-Aligned Movement began its mission to become an alternative voice in the international community, promoting respect for core United Nations values such as human rights, justice and peace.  The world in which the Movement emerged was markedly different from today’s globalized society.  The ideological divisions of the cold war and the scourge of colonialism have now been overcome.  The membership of the United Nations has almost doubled.  Still, the idea that global threats require global solutions — echoed in the Non-Aligned Movement’s founding documents — remains just as relevant.

Explanation:

As the Non-Aligned Movement recognized, we have the tools with which to reduce the incidence of war.  Conflict prevention has been an integral part of the United Nations architecture since its very creation, as well as a personal priority since I took office.  I will soon issue a report on preventive diplomacy, as requested by the United Nations Security Council.
