Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese President Xi Jinping made significant statements at the SCO and BRICS summits, respectively. Putin expressed gratitude to SCO members for their proposals on resolving the conflict in Ukraine, emphasizing the need for Ukraine to withdraw its troops from the regions annexed by Moscow in 2022. He also highlighted the importance of abandoning the bid to join NATO for ending hostilities. However, Kyiv and its allies have rejected this Russian proposal. On the other hand, Xi Jinping called on leaders at a Central Asia summit to resist external interference, emphasizing the need for autonomy in decision-making. These statements by Putin and Xi underscore the shifting dynamics in the global order, with a focus on regional cooperation and resistance to Western influence. The declarations made by the two leaders mark a significant step towards reshaping the geopolitical landscape and establishing a new world order based on mutual cooperation and non-interference.
