00:00I think Western audiences need to wake up to SEO because the decisions making here will have a huge impact
00:06on the entire world.
00:17For two days, leaders from across the world gathered in Bishkek, China, Russia, India, Pakistan and Turkey among them, a
00:25bloc now shaping how the world is run.
00:46And he was clear about the kind of world Kyrgyzstan wants to build.
00:49Kyrgyzstan is convinced that a right, multi-polar world should be built not against anyone, but in the best of
00:59all.
01:00We are ready to build this world together.
01:04It was the largest gathering of world leaders Kyrgyzstan has ever hosted.
01:33A mark of its standing, the United Nations Senate Secretary General to Bishkek.
01:38For an organisation like the UN, it is extremely important to engage with regional organisations, be it European Union, the
01:44African Union or the Shanghai Cooperation Council.
01:47And the most dynamic economies in the world are today in Asia.
01:52So for me, as Secretary General, it is very important to maintain a dialogue with the Shanghai Cooperation Council and
02:00to cooperate with them in the areas that are areas of common interest.
02:04Its boldest step came on security. Leaders agreed a new universal centre to fight crime and terrorism, the first hub
02:11here in Bishkek.
02:12There were only two permanent bodies. The regional anti-terrorism structure becomes into a very big coordinating body.
02:18And now the scope and the mandate would be much bigger than it has had for 25 years.
02:26None of this is as far away from Europe as it looks.
02:29The decisions taken into account here reach Europe's own energy, its trade routes and its security.
02:35We almost account for about half of the world's population, almost half of the world's GDP.
02:43So whatever decision this organisation is making will have a huge impact on world politics.
02:49Global sub-countries are demanding changes, changes in the current world governance system to make it fairer for developing countries.
02:56From its own headquarters, the verdict was blunt.
03:11It's reach grew with it, thanks in part to the continuous efforts of the hosts.
03:28There was money and machines too. A development bank for the region and a push into AI and clean energy.
03:35Конечно, результаты сегодняшнего саммита не завтра, не послезавтра.
03:40Конечно, в течение этого года мы все страны, которые подписывали сегодня документ,
03:47они будут реализовываться шаг за шагом, будут приниматься дорожные карты.
03:52И все предложения, которые высказали лидеры государств, они будут приведены в порядок
03:58и постепенно будут реализоваться по транспортным направлениям, по культурно-гуманитарной части.
04:06Кыргызстан even named a mountain peak after the block.
04:09Now it passes a chair to Pakistan.
04:11Well, I am myself very proud of it. I think it's a big deal for Pakistan.
04:15We joined only in 2017. In less than a decade, we are going to lead it.
04:19At the same time, I think it's a very tall order.
04:22We have not done it before. We have been talking about progress.
04:25We have been talking about prosperity. We talk about living in harmony, peace.
04:31We are a country which supports multilateralism.
04:33So, for us, carrying the SEO agenda, which has been there,
04:39and if you, I'm not sure if you have heard about the term Shanghai spirit,
04:44which is mutual respect, mutual understanding.
04:47For 25 years, the SEO has grown quietly.
04:50But in Bishkek, it became even more powerful.
04:53And Кыргызстан made it happen.
04:55Good night.
04:56Go for that and see you.
04:57All right.
