Leaders from more than 20 countries and senior officials from 10 international organizations are planning to attend the Tianjin Summit of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO), Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi announced.
The upcoming summit in Tianjin will be the largest in the history of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, marking a significant milestone in the organization's development, and will be held from 31st August to 1st September, the Chinese Foreign Minister said.
On Tuesday (15 July), Wang Yi chaired a gathering of the SCO Council of Foreign Affairs Ministers. China’s top diplomat voiced serious concern about the situation in the Middle East, condemning any military action that violate Iran’s sovereignty or weaken the global non-proliferation efforts.
Wang also highlighted that Afghanistan, as an important SCO member, should be supported in its efforts to achieve lasting peace and development through both short-term aid and long-term rebuilding.
Wang emphasized that a peaceful and prosperous neighbourhood is essential for every country’s growth. He expressed China’s dedication to creating a peaceful, safe, thriving, and friendly environment with its neighbours, based on friendship, honesty, mutual benefit, inclusiveness, and standing together through good times and bad.
He urged member states to keep alive the Shanghai Spirit, build a strong security foundation, focus on mutual benefits and win-win results to boost development, encourage friendship and good-neighbour relations.
Participants agreed to boost cooperation across different areas, encourage dialogue between civilizations, jointly support the authority of the United Nations, oppose unilateral actions, and peacefully resolve conflicts through discussion and negotiation—all to contribute to world peace and development.
