Abstract

The article focuses on the role of China in the establishment of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO). The SCO seeks to disseminate the Chinese foreign policy, reproduce the Chinese norms, and serve its business in the former Communist countries. By supporting the SCO, China is seeking to forge collaborative relationships with neighboring countries in post-communist Central Asia. China has been creating economic collaborations and security arrangements, in its role in the SCO.
