| Summary / Abstract (Note) | The Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) is intended to improve the security of its member states and foster economic cooperationbetween them. Though the fight against terrorism, separatism and religious extremism remains its primary function, Zhao Huasheng notes that other purposes have been added to the common agenda, such as the repression of the drug trade and organised crime, ensuring the departure of non member military forces stationed in SCO states, building up trade and investment and setting up an energy exporters and consumers club.. |
