Answer:
The correct answer is A. A major characteristic shared by countries in the Non-Aligned Movement during the Cold War was an unwillingness to involve themselves in any U.S.-Soviet conflicts.
Explanation:
The Non-Aligned Movement was a group of countries created in 1961, in the framework of the Cold War, by countries that did not identify themselves even with the Western Bloc and its democratic and capitalist values; nor with the Eastern Bloc and its communist and autocratic values. Thus, it was a group of neutral countries in the conflict of the Cold War, which tried not to get directly involved in said international conflict, but to attend in a particular way to their own interests.
Generally, these were countries of a socialist nature, but not aligned with the policies of the Soviet Union, such as Yugoslavia; or from countries with social democratic tendencies such as India.
They looked for three main things: Gold, glory (aka more land), and god (spreading religion). The main reason however was they wanted gold.
