Shanghai Cooperation Organization - Global Heads of States Summit 2021

SCO Summit 2021


The 20th heads of states summit of Shanghai Cooperation Organization took place in Dushanbe, Tajikistan on 16-17 September 2021, consisting of China, India, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Pakistan, Russia, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, and most recently Iran joined the group. During the meeting participants mainly focused on post-withdrawal issues in Afghanistan after the US exit and to galvanize regional support for the war-ravaged country to regain peace, stability, and prosperity. After the exit of the US and its allies, the country that was under the seizure of war for twenty years is likely to felt under great human crisis. The states reiterated how important is this for the interim government of the Taliban to coordinate with all the people of its country and give representation and share the power to form an inclusive government. An inclusive government that would give representation to all ethnic, linguistic, and social groups living within the country.
Speaking via videos link at the SCO summit, Russian President Vladimir Putin said, “This is an interim government, as the Taliban themselves say, and it cannot be really called representative or inclusive.” He emphasized the essential need to work collaboratively and coordinatively for the prosperity of the country. He stressed the main part of the “expenses related to the post-conflict rebuilding of Afghanistan that was born by the US and its NATO allies in their prolonged war on the land.” The US left destroyed Afghanistan but should compensate for its ruined identity. He called Washington to unfreeze assets of the Afghan central Bank and urged the new government to restrict and limit drug trafficking and its yield.
Talking at the summit Chinese President  Xi Jinping said that SCO states should have firm confidence in our system and refuse sanctimonious preaching from those who believe they have the right to lecture us. Xi supported the idea to resolutely fight every kind of terrorism and create avenues to prosperous Afghanistan.
Prime Minister Imran Khan stressed the Taliban’s government to engage Tajiks, Uzbeks, and Hazaras along with the Pashtuns to form a government that would be a representative of all. Prime Minister asked the states to work collaboratively to eradicate this humanitarian crisis before its severe implications on the people of Afghanistan and help them develop a peaceful and economically sustainable country.
Afghanistan is in dire need of global humanitarian assistance. Health, education, social and economic trajectory is likely to fall. Every single child asks for global assistance. Taliban’s government seeks recognition from the world to embark on a new journey to a healthy Afghanistan.
They need you to end the dark consequences of prolonged war. They really need you to take the human values to their fulfillment.

Pakistan-Russia Relationship after 1947

Pakistan-Russia Relationship after 1947 Pakistan and Russia (or its predecessor state, the Soviet Union) have had a complex relationship since Pakistan's independence in 1947.
