Summary/Abstract: Without entering the details and facts considering the arise and reasons of the conflict with USSR and east-European countries in 1948., this research work deals with those moments of Yugoslavia’ s struggle that supervene in OUN. Reasons for such an approach lay in fact that in the following period, the international organization has become the main forum for a defence of Yugoslavia’s independence. Important diplomatic gains were won and the international position and prestige of Yugoslavia consolidated by making the conflict with these countries public on a 4th session of General Assembly in 1949., as well as with the Yugoslavia’s election in the Security Council in the same year, its incomplete against the acts of USSR and other east-European countries on the 6th session of General Assembly, and by some 'important drafts of documents and actions in different organs of OUN. Ail that stopped the URSS, efforts to isolate Yugoslavia and opened the problem of relationship between the socialist countries. On the larger scale, sponsoring the right of independence and self-determination, including the right of people to choose their political system, supporting peace and peaceful settlement of international disputes, Yugoslavia fought not only in words but also in deed far the principles of United Nations. Using the possibilities of the OUN system in the creative way, Yugoslavia, after the conflict with USSR built its orientation in the international relations which led some years later to the politic of non-alignment as to its continuing policy.
