SCO Summit Tianjin 2025 | What the Joint Statement Really Said on Terror, Trade & the Bank

Описание: The Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) Summit 2025 in Tianjin ended with a carefully balanced Joint Statement — the Tianjin Declaration. For the first time, the SCO heads of state explicitly condemned three major attacks this year: the April 22 Pahalgam attack in India, and the Jaffar Express hostage incident plus the Khuzdar school-bus bombing in Pakistan. By placing all three in one paragraph, the text gave both New Delhi and Islamabad language they can claim as recognition of their concerns — without attributing blame.

Beyond terrorism, the summit approved the launch of an SCO Development Bank, announced new security centers on counter-terrorism and narcotics, reaffirmed the role of RATS (Regional Anti-Terrorist Structure), and adopted texts on multilateral trade, AI, green industry, and sustainable energy. Leaders also used the declaration to oppose unilateral coercive measures and signal against tariff wars — a response to today’s fractured global trade climate.
In this episode, Marvi Sirmed unpacks the Tianjin Declaration clause by clause: what changed after the failed Qingdao defence ministers’ meeting, why symmetry on terrorism matters for South Asia, what the bank could mean in practice, and how the SCO balances symbolism with substance. No spin, no triumphalism — just sharp analysis of what the text really says between the lines.
