Vice-President Mohammad Hamid Ansari will leave for Venezuela this
afternoon to participate in the 17th Summit of the Non Aligned Movement or NAM.
The Summit is being held at
Margarita Island in Venezuela on 17th and 18th of this month. The summit will
be preceded by deliberations at the Ministerial and Senior Official levels.
17th NAM Summit is expected to bring together leaders from the 120
developing countries that are members of this Movement.
The NAM Summits are among the

The last NAM Summit was hosted by Iran in 2012.
