How China and Russia could team up to shift global science ‘centre of gravity’

Experts in the US and Russia believe that increased science and technology cooperation between China and Russia could counter US isolation and help the international scientific community return to normalcy amidst geopolitical tensions. This collaboration could present an alternative model for scientific partnerships globally. During a meeting between the leaders of China and Russia in Beijing, experts expressed hope that the summit would establish institutional support and a structural framework for enhanced scientific cooperation. Such a shift could potentially move the global scientific "centre of gravity" from the West towards the East.
