Enlarged SCO, stronger moral voice
Some observers have read an aggressive political, even military role into an expanded Shanghai Cooperation Organization as both India and Pakistan are likely to be made full members at the 16th SCO summit in Tashkent on June 23-24. A few have even fantasized the SCO as a counterbalance to NATO. Nothing can be farther from the truth.
The SCO's founding members have made it clear that the twin principles of openness and transparency will continue to drive both its ethos and action.
