Beijing: China has announced a groundbreaking initiative to train thousands of overseas law enforcement officers, aiming to foster a ‘fairer’ world order. This ambitious program reflects China’s growing influence on global security and international cooperation.
Wang Xiaohong the Minister of Public Security of China made the announcement in the eastern city of Lianyungang in front of law enforcement representatives from 122 countries, regions and international organisations such as Interpol.
Minister Xiaohong said that, “China will train thousands of foreign law enforcement officers so as to see the world order develop in a more fair, reasonable and efficient direction, we will send police consultants to countries in need to conduct training to help them quickly and effectively improve their law enforcement capabilities.”
The training will be conducted through a series of workshops, seminars, and on-the-ground experiences hosted by China’s top law enforcement agencies. Participants will include officers from various countries, selected for their potential to impact international policing standards positively.
The curriculum promises to cover a range of topics, from advanced investigative techniques to cybercrime management, all tailored to enhance participants’ capabilities and promote equitable practices in their home countries.
Chinese officials claim that this initiative will help build a more just global legal system by sharing best practices and innovative strategies developed in China. They assert that it will strengthen international ties and improve the efficiency of law enforcement agencies worldwide.
The program is set to launch next month, and its progress will be closely watched by both supporters and sceptics. As global law enforcement agencies prepare to engage with this new initiative, the world will be observing whether it will indeed contribute to a fairer international order or serve other strategic interests.
