ALMATY, July 13 (Xinhua) — Cities today are not only economic hubs but also diplomatic centers, Serik Korzhumbayev, editor-in-chief of the Delovoy Kazakhstan newspaper, said in a recent exclusive interview with Xinhua at the "Dialogue of Mayors of the World – SCO Summit Cities" event held in Tianjin.
According to him, participation in the SCO cities dialogue has shown that respect for cultural diversity, dialogue at the people level and real cooperation at the city level are becoming the most important for the sustainable development of the countries of the region. Kazakhstan, as a bridge between the East and the West, between China and Central Asia, plays a key role in this process.
"Today we see how the humanitarian dimension is coming to the forefront within the SCO. It is especially important that the younger generation of the SCO member states have the opportunity to exchange experiences, learn from each other, and understand the values of their partners. This is the foundation for long-term peace and sustainable development," said S. Korzhumbayev.
The expert also stressed that cities like Tianjin are becoming a model of “modernization with a human face,” where technology serves not only efficiency, but also the comfort of life, ecology, and safety.
The Tianjin meeting in preparation for the SCO summit this fall was a convincing confirmation that cities are becoming “laboratories” of a new format of international cooperation – more humane, technological and environmentally friendly. These cities are where connections, trust and images of the future are formed that will determine the course of development of the entire Eurasian space. –0–
