Nepal’s non-alignment must stay

Non-alignment is taking a non-military alliance to prevent war and work for peace.

The illegal Russian invasion of Ukraine which started on February 24 has led to indiscriminate mass murder in Ukraine. This is a blatant violation of the principle of non-intervention. The aggression being done by a permanent member of the United Nations Security Council, in effect creating a lawless world, also damages the UN system that evolved after the Second World War. The logic that "two mistakes don’t make a right" must be acknowledged in all cases.
