In an exclusive interview with Xinhua News Agency reporters in Cairo a few days ago, the director of the Egyptian Foreign Affairs Committee, Yizat Saad said that the Shanghai Cooperation Organization has become an important platform for the global South to participate in the reshaping of the international order, helping to promote the construction of a new international multilateral system that can effectively address new challenges and ensure that countries of the global South gain a fair position. “The current international order still has extremely unfair problems. A few Western countries adhere to double standards, disregard the principle of sovereign equality, wantonly interfere in other countries' internal affairs, and deny each country the right to choose a path of development based on its own civilizational, cultural, and historical endowments.” Saad said that the SCO's effective implementation of global governance initiatives has created favorable conditions for the global South to reform the current unfair international order. The future multipolar order will guarantee that all countries, regardless of size, strength or weakness, can enjoy equal legal rights and interests. “This is also the core reason why more and more countries have applied to join the SCO in recent years.” Saad said that after 25 years of development, the SCO has become the most extensive and populous regional international organization in the world. Saad viewed the 2025 Shanghai Cooperation Organization summit in Tianjin as an “important turning point.” He said that as the largest summit since the establishment of the SCO, the summit passed the “Tianjin Declaration of the Council of Heads of State of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization”, which further improved the institution-building framework. At the meeting of the Council of Heads of State, it was clearly proposed to establish the Shanghai Cooperation Organization Development Bank as soon as possible. Saad said that this series of practical measures proposed by the Chinese side will help the peace, stability, development and prosperity of the SCO region, and that China's active participation and various initiatives have always been the driving force for the development of the SCO. Referring to the series of global initiatives proposed by China, Saad gave them high praise. He said that these initiatives faced various systemic challenges faced by the international community since the end of the Cold War and provided a viable path for rebalancing the current international order. “The Global Civilization Initiative has broken the misperception of the 'theory of superiority of civilization' and provided an institutional framework for equal dialogue among civilizations; while the Global Development Initiative and the Global Governance Initiative are highly in line with the development needs of the global South, making it clear that developing countries should enjoy equal representation and voice in the global governance system.” Saad said. Saad believes that China's support for multilateral financial mechanisms such as the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank and the New Development Bank also provides important support for the global South to reduce its dependence on Western financing systems, which is conducive to jointly advancing the reform of the global economic governance system. “Regional platforms such as the SCO are collaborating with a series of mechanisms and initiatives proposed by China to become a key pillar for countries in the global South to participate in global governance, which is essential for promoting the construction of a more equal international multipolar system.” Saad pointed out.
