President John Dramani Mahama has urged the Non-Aligned Movement to stand firm against the pressure exerted by global power blocs, calling on the grouping to remain a voice of conscience in a divided world.
Speaking at the 65th commemorative NAM summit, Mahama said member states must protect the movement’s strategic autonomy as international politics becomes increasingly fragmented and multipolar.
His appeal placed resistance to bloc politics at the center of the summit’s message. The Ghanaian president’s call focused on the role NAM can play by maintaining an independent position rather than yielding to pressure from powerful groupings.
Mahama’s remarks came as the movement considers how to remain relevant in a changing global order. He framed NAM’s independence and collective voice as essential to its continued role among developing countries.
