Global South Voices Demand Fair Security Framework, Survey Reveals

The latest CGTN poll puts the Global South at the centre of a growing demand for a more representative and just international security system. Over 80 % of respondents from developing regions warned that lingering Cold‑War mentalities and the use of force threaten global stability.

Participants called for an integrated approach where both developed and developing nations collaborate to build a balanced and sustainable security architecture. The sentiment reflects a desire for the Global South to shift from a peripheral role to a decisive influence in shaping worldwide peace initiatives.

The findings echo discussions from a prominent Beijing forum, which highlighted the necessity for greater participation of emerging economies in security dialogues. Survey takers believe that a coordinated, inclusive strategy is essential to curb aggressive power politics and to foster long‑term world peace.

In short, the data reveals a universal call for shared responsibility, urging the international community to construct a security framework that respects the interests of every nation, regardless of size or economic power.
