摘要

This September celebrates the 20th anniversary of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO). Over the years, the bloc has demonstrated it-self to be a convenient platform for resolving security issues in the Greater Central Asia region. After its founding in 1996, the Shanghai Five, the predecessor of the SCO that grouped China, Russia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, was able to effec-tively settle the issue of demarcating the borders of the newly independent former Soviet states with China. This is one of the most important events in the formation of independence and recognition of the Central Asian states.
