What are the major security threats facing China at present?

The security threats facing China at present are:

(1) the unification of the motherland is facing a serious situation;

(2) there are complicated disputes over maritime rights and interests;

(3) the border disputes have not yet been settled in their entirety;

(4) a small number of separatist forces are affecting the security and stability of the borders.

1. National security is the basic interest of the state, an objective state in which a country is free from danger, that is, the country is free from external threats and infringements as well as internal chaos and ailments. Contemporary national security includes 10 basic aspects, namely, national security, territorial security, sovereignty security, political security, military security, economic security, cultural security, scientific and technological security, ecological security and information security.

2. In China, there is a Ministry of State Security of the People's Republic of China*** and the State of China to unify the management of national security.On January 24, 2014, in order to further improve the national security system and the national security strategy, and to ensure the security of the country, the Central Government of the People's Republic of China*** has decided to set up the National Security Commission.

3. From the political aspect, the process of globalization has led to significant changes in the connotation of the State and national sovereignty. The deepening interdependence of nations has led to changes in the practice of measuring national security in terms of absolute sovereignty. From the economic aspect, the regulatory system of the global financial, trade and service markets has become more market-centered, and countries' economies are facing greater risks and challenges. From the cultural aspect, developed countries dominate the dissemination of cultural information, and they spread and promote their own values, which impact on the original social and cultural foundations of other countries. From the military aspect, military security is still the basic content of national security, and the military will remain the basic means of maintaining national security.

4. China is one of the few countries that relies entirely on its own strength to maintain its security, which determines that territorial, sovereignty and military security are still the main elements of our national security. However, we should also see that, after "9-11", traditional and non-traditional security issues are in the rise and fall of the change, therefore, we also need to pay attention to grasp the non-traditional security issues, prepare for rainy days, think long term, pay attention to grasp the initiative of national security.
