Xi Jinping to host summit in China showcasing Global South solidarity with Putin and Modi amid shifting geopolitical landscape
– Xi Jinping will host over 20 world leaders at the SCO summit in Tianjin from August 31 to September 1.
– Modi aims to improve India-China relations during the summit, despite ongoing regional conflicts and challenges.
Modi, making his first visit to China in over seven years, seeks to improve relations following earlier tensions.
The summit will also mark a significant gathering since the SCO’s founding in 2001, expanding from security concerns to include economic and military cooperation.
Future Expectations
Analysts believe that while the summit is positioned for impactful optics, its ability to generate tangible outcomes is unclear. ‘
Issues persist between member states, notably India and Pakistan, and challenges remain in joint responses to ongoing regional conflicts. However, analysts anticipate discussions may lead to incremental improvements in India-China border relations and broader cooperation in trade and climate initiatives.
Modi’s agenda likely includes bilateral meetings and regional cooperation talks, amidst expectations for increased dialogue. Despite limited policy declarations, the summit holds significant symbolic value for the Global South.
