Asian Security Model for Regional Peace

The Statesman Bhubaneswar

June 05, 2025

At a time when the world is undergoing unprecedented changes, Asia has emerged as a hub for global cooperation and development despite growing challenges.

Over the past 40 years, Asia has maintained overall peace and stability, which enabled rapid economic and social progress in the region. Countries in the region have managed to control disputes and avoid large-scale armed confrontations. Thus, Asia's security model can play a supportive role in maintaining peaceful development in the region.

The core reason for such peaceful development is the Asian wisdom in handling interstate relations in the region, which was proposed as an "Asia security model" at China's first central conference on work related to neighboring countries in April 2025.

The model aligns with the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence, the new security concept, the Asian security concept, and the Global Security Initiative, and has been safeguarding regional peace and development.
