The Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) has always stood for unity, respect and shared growth. Next month, the 2025 SCO Summit lands in Tianjin, bringing together leaders to keep the Shanghai Spirit alive 🤝🌏.
Since its launch over 20 years ago, the SCO has been powered by the Shanghai Spirit—mutual trust, mutual benefit, equality, consultation, respect for diversity of civilizations and the pursuit of common development. It’s like a friendship code for countries aiming to navigate a busy global sea.
At the recent Astana Summit, Chinese President Xi Jinping celebrated how the SCO “has grown into a mature and robust organization with strong vitality.” Looking ahead, the Tianjin gathering on August 31 and September 1 will focus on a new ten-year development strategy, with priorities including:
- 🌐 Strengthening security cooperation
- 💼 Boosting economic partnerships
- 🎨 Fostering cultural exchanges
China’s role is key: thanks to its size and resources, the Chinese mainland can offer funding and support—but it’s not calling all the shots. By propelling the SCO forward while respecting its shared values, China models the Shanghai Spirit in action.
For young news enthusiasts, entrepreneurs and students across Latin America, the upcoming SCO Summit is a front-row seat to see how Asia’s biggest cooperation forum writes its next chapter. Stay tuned as nations unite, ideas spark and the Shanghai Spirit keeps the flame burning bright 🔥.
