First stop: Moscow! On November 17 and 18, Premier Li Qiang will join the 24th Meeting of the Council of Heads of Government of Member States of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO). This group plays a key role in regional security and economic cooperation across Asia. Expect discussions on trade, connectivity, and the digital economy as leaders from across Eurasia meet.
