The Russia-China strategic partnership, the leaders in the process of Eurasia integration, the leaders of multipolar bodies BRICS and the SCO, have formally endorsed and boosted the drive towards multipolarity and a new system of international relations via a

So we had plenty of time to discuss
the implications of how the Top Two Eurasia powers - and global powers - are establishing the lineaments of a new geopolitical future for most of mankind.

"Right now there are changes we have not seen in 100 years." And then Xi and Putin agreed that now,
"we are the ones driving these changes together".The practical result is the sharply focused Beijing joint statement, penned by unmistakable "civilizations with ancient history."
