Question

State seven reasons why it has been difficult for many african countries to implement theprinciple of non alignment

Answer 1

Answer:WHY SOME AFRICAN COUNTRIES CANNOT IMPLEMENT THE NON-ALIGNED POLICY

Influence of former colonial powers

Many of the African countries have, at one time, been colonized by European powers and many of them are still attached to the apron strings of such former colonial powers. The former colonies are therefore influenced in the running of their countries. This is why they cannot really toe the line of Non-alignment but to follow the path their former colonial masters pass.

Explanation:Fear of military attack

Another reason why some African countries are not able to follow the path of Non-alignment is that they fear they could be attacked by the super-powers

Personal interest of some African leaders

Some African leaders have an inordinate desire to remain in power. Some of these African leaders, who are unpopular in their own countries, have been kept in power by one of the super-powers or the other.

Membership of International Organizations

Another reason for the inability to implement the principle of Non-alignment is the membership of the various African countries to several International Organizations.
