Summary
Machine summarySenior Colonel Jiang Bin announced on September 14 that the 13th Beijing Xiangshan Forum opens September 15–17 with delegations from nearly 100 countries, regions, and international organizations, including more than 60 ministerial- and chief-of-staff-level representatives. The forum's stated themes — 凝聚稳定共识 (consolidating consensus on stability) and 同促安全治理 (jointly advancing security governance) — frame China's multilateral defense diplomacy as an alternative stabilizing force in what official language calls 变乱交织的世界, a world of intertwined turbulence and upheaval. The framing points to an effort to position the PLA as a responsible security actor for a Global South audience, though which specific countries sent ministerial-level delegations remains unreported.
