A New Type of Security Partnership
The Eighth Beijing Xiangshan Forum was held in October 2018 under the theme "Building a New Type of Security Partnership of Equality, Mutual Trust and Win-Win Cooperation." The new-type security partnership is a new approach to international security governance responding to the development of the times.
The approach calls for dialog rather than confrontation, collaboration rather than alliance with some against others, multilateralism rather than unilateralism, and mutually beneficial cooperation rather than zero-sum games. It requires expanded exchanges with other countries and their militaries in various formats, at different levels and through multiple channels to build mutual understanding and trust. It adheres to resolving disputes and differences through dialog and consultation, effective control of risks, and joint actions to counter threats and security challenges and contribute to world and regional peace and stability.
The goal of building a new type of security partnership is to encourage all countries to free themselves from the straitjacket of old thinking of alliance or confrontation, and embrace an inclusive and constructive approach to developing security partnerships on the basis of equality and mutual understanding - partnerships that accommodate today's trends and do not target an assumed enemy or any third party. It is essential to promote the building of a global community with a shared future, and call on all countries to shoulder their responsibilities and work together to strengthen security cooperation that benefits all, to forge a new form of international relations featuring mutual respect, fairness, justice, and win-win cooperation, and to create a better future for humanity.
构建新型安全伙伴关系
2018年10月举行的第八届北京香山论坛，主题为“打造平等互信、合作共赢的新型安全伙伴关系”。构建新型安全伙伴关系，是顺应时代发展潮流提出的国际安全治理新理念。主要内容包括：提倡对话不对抗，结伴不结盟，多边不单边，互利合作而不搞零和博弈；通过多形式、多层次、多渠道加强与各国及其军队的对话交流，增信释疑，逐步建立军事安全互信机制；坚持以对话磋商妥善处理矛盾分歧，有效管控战略风险，携手应对各种威胁挑战，共同为维护地区和世界的和平稳定作出努力。
构建新型安全伙伴关系，旨在倡导各国跳出结盟或对抗的窠臼，顺应时代发展潮流，平等相待、互商互谅，探索构建不设假想敌、不针对第三方、具有包容性和建设性的安全伙伴关系，推动构建人类命运共同体，呼吁各国共担责任，共同走出一条共建、共享、共赢的安全合作之路，促进构建相互尊重、公平正义、合作共赢的新型国际关系，共创人类更加美好的未来。
