The Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) is a permanent international intergovernmental organization. The creation of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation was announced in June 2001 in Shanghai (China) by the Republic of Kazakhstan, the People’s Republic of China, the Kyrgyz Republic, the Republic of Uzbekistan, the Russian Federation, and the Republic of Tajikistan.

India was accorded full membership of SCO in June 2017 in Astana. Recently, Iran was also made a member. This organisation gains relevance as it gives a platform for nations which are at loggerheads with each other on multiple issues to discuss issues and resolve them amicably.

The Shanghai Cooperation Organization is a Eurasian intergovernmental political, economic, security, and military alliance.

In terms of geographic scope and population, it is the world's largest regional organization, covering approximately 60% of the area of Eurasia, 40% of the world's population, and more than 30% of the global GDP.

The SCO Charter was signed in 2002 and entered into force in 2003.
SCO is all set for further expansion with Iran joining the grouping as its 9th member while Belarus has also applied for membership.

The decision to admit Iran was made at the 2021 Dushanbe summit. Iran will become a full member after completing the formalities while SCO member states, who follow the system of consensus in deciding admission of new members, will take a call on Belarus’s application.
