The SCO is the largest integration organization of the Eurasian powers which is open to working with a wide range of countries. The participation in the organization's working processes of such countries as Russia, China, India, Pakistan and others proves the ever-increasing attention drawn by the Eurasian project. After the induction of India and Pakistan into the organization, the SCO will overtake NATO in terms of the number of member countries with nuclear weapons.
Despite the fact that the SCO is based on military and political cooperation, this organization cannot develop without the integration of certain economic projects. Particular attention will be paid to trade and economic cooperation. The leaders of the member countries will discuss cooperation in the fields of trade and investment, transport, energy, finance, agriculture, telecommunications and the implementation of joint infrastructure projects.
The summit in Tashkent will also consider Iran's bid to join the SCO. Tehran sent an application to join as early as April 2008, and now that the sanctions regime against the country has been lifted, there are no grounds for refusing to accept Iran into the organization. Tehran’s entry into the SCO will further strengthen the geopolitical potential of the organization.
