The three leaders signed a document known as theBrioni Declaration expressing that:"Peace cannot be achieved via division, but via striving for collective security on the global scale. Achieved by the expansion of the area of freedom, as well as through the ending of domination of one country over another."[1][5]French media criticized Yugoslav hosts for giving prominent role to the issue ofliberation struggle inFrench Algeria yet British analysts noticed Nasser's insistence on the issue, Nehru's moderation efforts and Tito's decision not to meet with representatives of theAlgerian delegates during the conference.[6]
