BRICS, SCO and EAEU Integration in Context of Formation of Multipolar World

The purpose of the research. The article discusses changes in world politics associated with the strengthening of the role of new international organizations and structures, such as BRICS and the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO). These organizations are becoming key elements of the emerging multipolar system of international relations, offering alternative approaches to solving global problems and contributing to the strengthening of cooperation between the countries of the Global South and the East. Particular attention is paid to Russia’s active participation in these structures, which emphasizes its importance in the formation of a new world order. The results of the XVI BRICS Summit in Kazan, the prospects for the integration of the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) with BRICS and the SCO, as well as the challenges associated with the implementation of these ambitious goals are analyzed. The article also discusses the role of Asia in the new world order and the impact of the decisions of individual countries, such as Kazakhstan, on integration processes. Results. As a result of the conducted research, the authors come to the conclusion that BRICS and SCO are becoming key elements of the emerging multipolar system of international relations. The associations offer an alternative approach to solving international problems based on the principle of inclusiveness, justice and equality in international affairs. Russia initiates new ideas and projects, playing a key role in the development of such associations as BRICS, SCO and EAEU. The economic potential of the integration of the countries of the Global South is increasing. However, there are new challenges and threats that the member countries of the BRICS, EAEU and SCO associations face on their way to integration. Nevertheless, Asia, due to its demographic, economic, and technological advantages, is becoming the center of a new world order. The authors also highlighted further prospects for expanding integration processes both in the BRICS, SCO, and EAEU spaces, as well as between the member states of these associations. Research methodology. This study uses an integrated approach combining several methods to analyze the prospects for the integration of BRICS, SCO and EAEU in the context of the formation of a multipolar world: analysis of literature and documents, review of existing research; analysis of the regulatory framework; assessment of trade and economic indicators, assessment of the dynamics of trade turnover, investments and other economic indicators characterizing the interaction between the BRICS, SCO and EAEU member countries; comparison of macroeconomic indicators to assess the effectiveness of integration processes; content analysis of events and events, summits and meetings; study of the content of bilateral meetings of the leaders of the participating countries to determine priority areas of interaction. The work also uses expert assessments and opinions, as well as predictive analysis, trend extrapolation, and scenario analysis.
