Member countries to expand cooperation on judicial affairs

President Xi Jinping said on Friday that China is going to establish a training base at a university in Shanghai to boost judicial exchanges among the members of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization.

The campus is to be based at Shanghai University of Political Science and Law, which will provide judicial training courses for the SCO member countries, Xi said during the 13th summit of the organization in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan, on Friday.

Xi's statement came after the first conference of the SCO's justice ministers, which was held in Beijing from Sept 5 to 6.
