Updated: 2008-08-30 09:21 In a keynote speech at the SCO summit Thursday in Dushanbe, President Hu presented an in-depth analysis of the regional security situation and the threats and challenges confronting the SCO member states. Appealing to member states to further relations and implement the Treaty on Long-term Good-neighborliness, Friendship and Cooperation, Hu called on all sides to consolidate political mutual trust, enhance cooperation in security, economy and culture, and work together to build up regional harmony, Yang said. The Dushanbe summit of the SCO culminated with the signing of several important documents such as the SCO Dialogue Partnership Protocol and a joint declaration, the Chinese foreign minister said. On the sidelines of the summit, President Hu held meetings with his Russian and Kyrgyz counterparts and exchanged views on bilateral ties and international and regional issues of common concern, cementing bilateral understanding and trust, and furthering mutually beneficial cooperation, Yang said.
TO CLARIFY DEVELOPMENT PATH Throughout his tour and at the SCO summit, President Hu elaborated on China's domestic and foreign policies, emphasizing that his country's achievements in the past 30 years had sprung from its reform and opening-up policy and that its future development will also rely on the same. The Chinese people will unswervingly continue the reform and opening-up, strive for a moderately well-off society and accelerate modernization, said Hu. China will persistently follow the path of peaceful development and a reciprocal win-win strategy in its opening-up policy, he reiterated.
Hu noted that China seeks peaceful, open and cooperative development, and endeavors to construct a harmonious world of lasting peace and common prosperity. President Hu's three-nation tour lived up to initial expectations and was deemed as a successful visit of sticking to good-neighborliness, deepening solidarity and mutual trust and seeking mutual benefit and win-win outcome, Yang said. Hu's tour will have a significant and far-reaching influence on upgrading China's relations with the three countries, promoting a long-term, healthy and stable development of the SCO and building up regional and international harmony, Yang concluded.
