On July 3, 2024, during the Shanghai Cooperation Organization summit, Chinese leader Xi Jinping and Russian President Vladimir Putin held a bilateral summit to enhance cooperation, utilizing the Eurasian security and defense organization as a tool to counterbalance the US and its Western allies. This move comes amid a shifting global order with the US seeing China as its biggest competitor and Russia as a major threat, while Xi and Putin aim to promote a more multipolar world.
