ANTONIO ALONSO: “La OCS es una alianza militar como la OTAN. Rusia, China e Irán hablan de defensa”

ANTONIO ALONSO: “The SCO is a military alliance like NATO. Russia, China, and Iran talk about defense.” The debate addresses the strategic role of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan, as a key player in consolidating the multipolar order and a geopolitical counterweight to NATO. Analysts highlight the organization's transformation from a Central Asian regional forum focused on border demarcation to a comprehensive defensive alliance that brings together powers like China, Russia, and India, representing a substantial portion of the world's population, driving global economic growth, and controlling key strategic resources such as rare earth elements. Antonio Alonso Marcos analyzes the viability of the US foreign policy agenda promoted by the Trump administration in scenarios like Venezuela and Iran, noting that its dynamics are subject to an expiration date linked to potential political changes in Washington or Tel Aviv. At the SCO summit, he emphasized the growing closeness of ties between Moscow, Beijing, and Tehran in security and defense matters, while describing India's diplomatic position as that of a highly autonomous actor—comparable to Turkey's role in NATO—which raises some concerns about trust among its Asian partners. For his part, Christian Lamesa highlighted the strength of the strategic alliance between Russia and China within the Eurasian framework, based on learning from shared historical lessons and containing common threats such as separatism and external interference. Lamesa maintains that the SCO acts as the military and security engine of this emerging multipolar bloc, while the influence of the United States and Europe is showing a progressive decline on the international stage. #interview #ocs #geopolitics #russia #china #india #putin #xijinping #india #nato #trump #usa #war #military #businesstv 🔞Disclaimer: All information, material, and/or content included in this program is for informational and educational purposes only.
