During the Cold War, the countries belonging to which of the following category were termed as the Least Developed Countries?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The non-aligned countries were more than merely mediators during the Cold War. The challenge for most of the non-aligned countries — a majority of them were categorised as the Least Developed Countries (LDCs) — was to be more developed economically and to lift their people out of poverty.
