  2. Nigeria balanced NAM political non-alignment with pragmatic economic nationalism, utilizing OPEC price mechanisms to maximize domestic revenue while preserving trade relationships with major Western consumers.Cevap
  3. C
    Nigeria leveraged OPEC's collective decision-making structure to legally transform NAM from a non-binding diplomatic conference into a supranational military command.

Cevap

Nigeria balanced Non-Aligned Movement (NAM) political non-alignment with pragmatic economic nationalism, utilizing OPEC price mechanisms to maximize domestic revenue while preserving trade relationships with major Western consumers.
Nigeria's foreign policy under successive administrations navigated the Cold War era by adopting political non-alignment while maintaining an essential economic relationship with Western trade partners. Joining OPEC in 1971 enabled Nigeria to assert national control over its oil resources and secure market revenues through collective pricing without compromising its non-aligned diplomatic status.
