China has become the guarantor of international order

CNN Portugal28 August 2026 at 23:44

China has become the guarantor of international order, according to an analysis by Tiago André Lopes, a CNN Portugal commentator. The title of the piece reflects this central idea about China's growing role in the global geopolitical scenario.

The commentator believes there is a "perception of stability" associated with China that influences how countries view it. This perception of stability makes democratic states look at China with fascination, according to the analysis presented.

The article does not develop in depth the arguments supporting this thesis, limiting itself to presenting the perspective of the CNN Portugal commentator on China's international position.
