Summary

Machine summary

On May 8, the PLA hosted a preparatory meeting in Beijing for the 13th Beijing Xiangshan Forum, drawing official representatives, experts, and scholars from more than 40 countries and international organizations across four roundtable discussions covering international order, Asia-Pacific security, and military applications of emerging technologies. The meeting is a standard pre-forum coordination event, but the chosen theme—'Global Security Governance: Challenges and the Way Forward'—and the emphasis on a 'just and equitable' governance system reflect Beijing's consistent effort to use the Xiangshan Forum as a platform for contesting Western-led security frameworks and positioning the PLA as a constructive actor in multilateral security dialogue. The 20th-anniversary framing signals an intent to elevate the forum's institutional profile ahead of the autumn plenary.
