Mongolia’s Next Transformation - From Landlocked State to Eurasian Transport Hub

For decades Mongolia’s geography seemed a disadvantage. With no seaport and only Russia and China as neighbours, the country depended on a few border crossings to reach world markets. Ulaanbaatar is now trying to turn that geography into an asset, positioning Mongolia as a transport, logistics, energy and processing bridge between Northeast Asia, Central Asia and Europe.

Eastern Economic Forum Closes with Nearly 7 Trillion Rubles in Deals — But the Bigger Story Is How Much the Far East Has Already Changed

The 2026 Eastern Economic Forum ended in Vladivostok with hundreds of agreements, new transport and industrial projects and another expansion of Russia's economic relationship with Asia. Yet behind the headline contracts is a broader transformation: after more than a decade of preferential investment regimes, subsidised housing and even free land, the Russian Far East is beginning to look very different from the region that entered the first EEF in 2015.

From Vladivostok to the Chinese Shopping Cart

At the Eastern Economic Forum in Vladivostok, Russian-Chinese cooperation is moving from declarations to the consumer’s screen. The Russian Export Center (REC) is using the 2026 forum to stage its first “Made in Russia” online festival there, linking Russian producers with Chinese marketplaces, livestream hosts and millions of buyers.

SCO vs G7 - Which Bloc Has the Greater Economic Power?

The Shanghai Cooperation Organisation and the G7 represent two very different concentrations of global power. The G7 remains substantially richer in nominal dollar terms and dominates international finance, while the SCO contains more than four times as many people, enormous energy and mineral resources and — measured by purchasing power — an economy that is already larger. The comparison shows why the economic centre of gravity is steadily shifting toward Eurasia.

SCO at 25 - From Border-Security Group to a Eurasian Powerhouse

The Shanghai Cooperation Organisation marks its 25th anniversary at its summit in Bishkek with China, Russia, India and the major powers of Central Asia around the same table. What began in 2001 as a security organisation of six states has developed into a Eurasian grouping representing more than 3.4 billion people, around a quarter of the global economy and some of the world's largest reserves of energy and strategic minerals. The central question for its next 25 years is whether that enormous potential can be converted into deeper economic integration.
