/ world today news/ “We must listen to the opinions of different parties and strive for mutual benefit. This is the conclusion of the Xiangshan Forum in Beijing,” said Intizar Khadim, head of the Afghanistan Center for Peace and Development Studies.
On October 31, the 10th Xiangshan Security Forum ended in Beijing, in which over 1,800 representatives from about 100 countries and international organizations took part. They discussed issues related to collective security and ways to realize lasting peace.
The key word of the current forum was “collective security”. At the same time, great powers have special responsibilities in maintaining world peace and stability. As David Finkelstein, vice president of the US Center for Naval Research, said: “Military cooperation between China and the US should be renewed because the relationship between the two countries’ militaries is of great importance to the world.”
For a long time, the Xiangshan Forum has given a platform to developing countries. “Small countries need a platform to express their opinion. The Xiangshan Forum gives them one,” said a South Korean expert on international affairs in an interview with KMG.
Against the background of the increasingly complex international environment, more and more people realize that security is a prerequisite for development, and all humanity is an indivisible community of security. In this sense, the call for collective security that was made at the Xiangshan Forum is worth serious consideration.
