Russia China Ties Reinforced Amid Global Uncertainty The meeting between Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping on the sidelines of the SCO summit in Kyrgyzstan serves as a stark reminder that old alliances become even more crucial in times of global uncertainty.
The Russian and Chinese leaders have reaffirmed their strategic partnership, citing its significance despite the growing "uncertainty and unpredictability" in the international order.
The Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) has long been seen as a counterweight to Western influence in the region, providing a platform for Russia and China to present a united front against the West.
