Tianjin Summit Sets Path for Unity and Growth in the Global South, Says Expert
Chinese scholar Zheng Anguang, professor and dean at Nanjing University’s Institute of International Relations, underscored the historic significance of the eight key achievements highlighted by Foreign Minister Wang Yi at the Tianjin Summit.
“The eight achievements of this SCO summit are highly significant. First, a roadmap for the future development of the SCO was outlined, laying a solid foundation for deeper and higher-level cooperation among member states,” he told Sputnik.
Zheng emphasized two breakthroughs in particular:
▶the strategic vision for the next decade, which brings “certainty to the peaceful stable development of international relations;”
▶the decision to establish the SCO Development Bank.
According to Zheng, these steps embody the “Shanghai Spirit” of trust, equality, mutual benefit, and cultural respect—ensuring that the SCO not only consolidates past achievements but also opens new horizons for global cooperation.
