Over several decades, many intricate security issues in the Middle East, such as the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, the Iranian nuclear crisis, the Syrian conflict and terrorism, etc., have greatly influenced regional and global security and stability. The international community has taken many measures to solve these problems, but they did not achieve the expected results. With the rise of China, the international community’s expectation for China to participate in global governance has also increased. Therefore, in recent years, China has taken an increasingly proactive stance on the Middle East security governance, transforming from a detached bystander into an active participant and initiator. To realize and maintain security and stability in the Middle East, China has put forward its own solutions to the security issues based on the principles of respecting sovereignty, non-interference of the internal affairs of other countries, objectivity and impartiality, comprehensive and fundamental governance, peaceful resolution, and multilateral participation. Although China’s solutions are not perfect yet and are faced with many criticisms, their prospects are optimistic. They have provided new ideas for the Middle East security governance.
