Lavrov Sees Growing Common Ground Among Major Powers
Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said Russia, India, and China are increasingly interacting based on shared interests. He pointed to their recent display of unity at the SCO summit in Tianjin—such as the widely noticed triple handshake and friendly huddle among their leaders—as evidence of this emerging trend.
Shared Goals Include Economic and Social Progress
Lavrov clarified that while not all positions are aligned, there is a tendency for deeper cooperation where interests overlap. He noted common priorities like economic development, addressing social challenges, and improving living standards across the three nations.
Broader Implications for Global Dynamics
The public camaraderie among the leaders of these major powers signals a possible shift in global alignments. While no formal bloc or new alliance has been declared, Lavrov’s remarks suggest a pragmatic convergence driven by mutual benefit rather than ideological uniformity.
