Summary/Abstract: The article scrutinizes last major diplomatic engagement of Josip Broz Tito on the international scene by tracking his activity before and during the Sixth Summit of Nonaligned Countries in Havana, September 1979. Confronting with Fidel Castro’s attempt to tilt the movement closer to the policies of the USSR, Tito developed intense, yet elastic platform of „the return to the essence of nonalignment“.
