At the same conference, ten principles known as the Bandung principles were adopted to guide the operations of the new international bloc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>NAM was founded with the view of advancing the interests of developing countries in the context of Cold War confrontations. As of now, NAM consists of 120 countries that are neither pro-east nor pro-west. These include 53 countries from Africa, 39 from Asia, 26 from Latin America and the Caribbean, and 2 from Europe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the other hand, the G77, also known as the Group of Seventy Seven was established by seventy-seven developing countries signatories to the \u201cJoint Declaration of the Seventy-Seven Developing Countries\u201d issued at the end of the first session of the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) in Geneva on 15 June 1964.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Overtime, membership in the G77 has increased from the original 77 to 134 countries of the global south.
