BEIJING, May 30 - Chinese President Hu Jintao said Tuesday that the
Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) summit meeting on June 15 in
Shanghai is expected to be a complete success.
"During the summit, the heads of the SCO member states will have in-depth
exchanges of views on mutually beneficial cooperation and sign important
documents," said Hu in a joint interview in Beijing with media
representatives from the six member states.
The heads of state of the six SCO member countries will attend the summit
meeting, along with observers and representatives from countries and
international organizations that have established cooperative relations
with the SCO.
Established in 2001, the SCO comprises China, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan,
Russia, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan. In 2004 and 2005, it accepted
Mongolia, Iran, Pakistan and India as observers.
The summit will review the developments of the organization since it was
established five years ago, analyze international and regional
situations, study the organization's future development and outline
cooperation plans, said Hu.
"This will help build a harmonious region with sustainable development
and common prosperity," said Hu.
"The countries in the region are striving to safeguard peace and
stability and promote their economic development," said Hu, adding the
summit will be "united, pragmatic and important."
Hu hailed the sound development of the organization in the past five
years, citing fruitful cooperation among the member states in terms of
politics, security, trade, culture and international affairs.
He attributed the rapid growth of the SCO to the "Shanghai Spirit" of
mutual trust and benefit, equality, consultation, respect for cultural
diversity and the desire for common development.
"Though there are big differences among the SCO member states in
ideology, culture and level of economic development, the reason why the
SCO has made such rapid progress and outstanding achievements lies in our
insistence on the Shanghai Spirit," said Hu.
The Chinese government has played its due role in establishing and
developing the SCO by working closely with the member states to boost
mutual trust and trade cooperation, he said.
"China will make joint efforts with the other countries to lift bilateral
relations to a new height and promote the SCO to make new progress," said
Hu.
"I am looking forward to meeting with the heads of the member states to
exchange views on international and regional issues of common concern,"
said Hu.
