nettavisen.no (Swedish)

Russia's Foreign Minister Lavrov stated the West has been surpassed by non-Western powers, citing the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) summit. The SCO summit in Tianjin, China, is seen as a response to Western dominance in trade and finance. Lavrov noted that these competing powers have grown stronger and are now ahead of the West. The SCO includes China, Russia, India, and Pakistan, with potential expansion to countries like Egypt and Saudi Arabia. Experts question its effectiveness due to internal disputes and a lack of a unified narrative beyond opposition to Western organizations.
