What do President Xi's recent visits reveal about China's diplomatic vision?

In just one week, Chinese President Xi Jinping attended the Shanghai Cooperation Organization summit in Bishkek and paid state visits to Kyrgyzstan and Egypt – engagements that produced a series of important diplomatic outcomes. At the SCO summit, leaders adopted the Bishkek Declaration and 28 outcome documents. In Kyrgyzstan, China and Kyrgyzstan signed a joint declaration on advancing their comprehensive strategic partnership for a new era, along with a treaty on permanent good-neighborliness, friendship and cooperation. In Egypt, the two sides signed cooperation documents covering trade, artificial intelligence, the digital economy and transport. So, what are the major takeaways from these trips? And what do they tell us about China's diplomatic priorities and vision for the future? To explore these questions, our guests in this edition of Dialogue are Wang Xinsong, associate professor at Beijing Normal University; Hisham Abubakr Metwally Mohamed, first economist researcher at Egypt's Ministry of Foreign Trade and Industry; Zoon Ahmed Khan, founder of the ShangHe Review; and Professor Kubanychbek Taabaldiev of Ala-Too International University in Kyrgyzstan. 📺 Subscribe to our YouTube channel and stay updated with our latest analysis and interviews:👇 https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgrNz-aDmcr2uuto8_DL2jg 👈 Download our APP on Apple Store (iOS): https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/cctvnews-app/id922456579?l=zh&ls=1&mt=8 Download our APP on Google Play (Android): https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.imib.cctv For more: https://www.cgtn.com/video Most watched videos: Impossible Challenge: 30 seconds to count banknotes BLINDFOLDED https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZmP_Ybj-jws Impossible Challenge: Gymnastics Boy Arat Hosseini from Iran! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8sxX--U4c8w Impossible Challenge: How to calm babies in 5 seconds? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kR3q9sXM7WA
