How does China's SCO vision empower the Global South?

The Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) Summit is set to shine in Tianjin. Ahead of the summit, experts have been gathering at Tianjin Port where China drives connectivity and free trade for the Global South. How does China's vision empower SCO nations to foster economic growth and regional stability? Can Tianjin Port's AI-driven automation help advance global trade for SCO members? And how can the SCO unite diverse nations to hedge Western protectionism and promote inclusive prosperity?
