Chinese Foreign Minister Qin Gang said the GSI upholds the vision of common, comprehensive, cooperative and sustainable security, pursues the long-term objective of building a secure community, and advocates a new path to security featuring dialogue over confrontation, partnership over alliance and win-win over zero-sum.
A year after Chinese President Xi Jinping first mentioned the GSI at the Boao Forum last April, the West, particularly the US, has been watching Beijing’s effort to show its growing role and approach to international security.
Former UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said GSI has remarkable points such as promoting the UN’s central role in security governance, promoting coordination and healthy interactions between big countries, creating conditions for peaceful solutions of hot issues through dialogue, addressing traditional and non-traditional security challenges, and strengthening the global security governance system and capacity.
