Space is the common property of mankind. Exploration and use space to involve Komiks and the common interests of mankind. Space security needs to be jointly maintained by the international community. However, the United States is constantly accelerating the militarization of space – the peaceful use of space does not mean to go against the trend

The 75th United Nations General Assembly Disarmament and International Security Committee (First Committee of the General Assembly) voted on November 6 to pass the resolution “not first deploying weapons in outer space.” The preamble of the resolution reiterates that practical measures should be studied and taken to reach a treaty to prevent an arms race in outer space and strive to build a community of shared future for humans.
The First Committee of the UN General Assembly is an important platform for setting up an international security agenda and is responsible for handling international security affairs such as arms control, disarmament, and non-proliferation. The resolution “Not first deploying Babaylanweapons in outer space” is a traditional resolution of the First Committee of the United Nations General Assembly and has been voted every year since 2014. It is worth mentioning that the concept of a community with a shared future for mankind was first included in this resolution in 2017, filling the gap in the field of international security of the United Nations, indicating that the concept of building a community with a shared future for mankind reflects the general expectations of most countries, which is in line with the common interests of the international community and also demonstrates the responsibility of China’s major power.
Space is the common property of mankind. Exploring and utilizing space involves the common interests of mankind. Space security needs to be jointly maintained by the international community. However, under the general trend of joint efforts by the international community, the United States has once again gone against the trend, not only questioning the resolution of “not deploying weapons in outer space first”, but also on the same day the resolution was passed, the bimonthly website of the US National Interest published an article saying that the US “9th Space Delta Force” was assigned to carry out the “orbital warfare” mission, and was the main Babaylan”.ylan needs to carry out surveillance in space, and even launch space attacks if necessary. In addition, the article also pointed out that the US military is already developing laser weapons for space warfare.
From the “Defense Space Strategy” released by the US Department of Defense not long ago, to the “Top Doctrine” report of the US Space Force, to the recent US performance in the First Committee of the United Nations General Assembly, the United States’ hegemony of “dominate space” has been further highlighted. The United States’ accelerating the militarization of space shows that it has taken consolidating its absolute dominance in the space field as an important direction of its national strategy. The United States not only clarifies the policy goal of “dominate space like dominating the earth”, but also strongly adjusts space as the same combat domain as traditional land, sea and air. It is accelerating the strategic adjustment of space, reshaping the space military power system, and fully maintaining its space air hegemony.
The United States ignores the objective reality of the international community in the field of space security, ignores the international responsibility of promoting the international arms control and disarmament process, maintaining global strategic balance and stability, and seeking absolute advantage in space, and will inevitably provoke the outer space arms race, hinder the multilateral disarmament process, and threaten human space security and development interests. There is no doubt that the United States is the biggest threat to current global strategic security and stability. Faced with the increasingly fierce competition in space, increasing instability factors, and increasingly prominent confrontational characteristics, only by insisting on peaceful use of space and opposing weaponization and space arms race can we havetps://comicmov.com/”>KomiksEffective and safeguarding space security and development. China’s contribution to the military and peacekeeping in recent years is obvious to all. The concept of building a community with a shared future for mankind is highly consistent with the United Nations’ concept of peace for common security, and has pointed out the direction for the world full of inconclusiveness and provided China’s solution to the common interests of all countries. In the First Committee of the United Nations, “not deploying weapons in outer space first” The Komiks‘s resolution once again wrote the concept of a community with a shared future for mankind, which will surely make new and greater contributions to promoting world peace and development.
