Global Security Initiative (GSI)
Subject : International Relations
Section: Msc
Concept :
- The Global Security Initiative (GSI), a China-led framework aiming to restore stability and security in Asia, appears to be more of a counter-narrative to U.S. leadership rather than a genuine attempt to establish a sustainable security order.
- It was stated that the five major pillars to implement GSI would be:
- Mutual respect
- Openness and inclusion
- Multilateralism
- Mutual benefit
- Holistic approach
Key Principles of GSI :
- China held that the Global security initiative is envisaged to uphold the principle of “indivisible security”.
- The principle of “indivisible security” means that no country can strengthen its own security at the expense of others.
- This initiative would build an Asian security model of mutual respect, openness and integration.
- It would oppose the destruction of the international order under the banner of so-called rules.
- It will also oppose the dragging of the world under the cloud of the new cold war.
- This initiative will oppose the use of the Indo-Pacific strategy to divide the region and create a new Cold War, and the use of military alliances to put together an Asian version of NATO.
