United Nations Organisation (UNO) completes 69 years of its existence on 24th October 2014. As the UNO website itself states:

“The United Nations is an international organization founded in 1945 after the Second World War by 51 countries committed to maintaining international peace and security, developing friendly relations among nations and promoting social progress, better living standards and human rights.”

It was formed after the Second World War at the initiative of USSR, US and Britain after the defeat of the Axis powers led by Adolf Hitler of Germany.

Now there are 193 states affiliated with the UNO. It has many sub-organisations like World Health Organisation, UNESCO, ILO etc.Its head Quarters is in New York in US.

Anybody watching the UN developments would wish that it would be more effective if it is fully free from the influence of the US and other imperialist countries.
