The global technological and digital divide is widening, the financial market continues to be turbulent, investment shrinks, the supply chain is unstable, protectionism is rising, and other international trade barriers are increasing. Global climate change and the COVID-19 epidemic have exacerbated the instability and uncertainty of the world economy, posing new challenges to economic growth, social welfare, food and energy security, and the implementation of the UN 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. To this end, new comprehensive measures are needed to promote more just and effective international cooperation. The member states have similar or identical positions on current international and regional issues, reaffirming their adherence to recognized principles of international law, multilateralism, equality, common, indivisibility, comprehensiveness, cooperation, sustainable security, cultural and cultural diversity as the foundation, leveraging the central coordinating role of the United Nations, and building a more representative, just and democratic multipolar world order through equal and mutually beneficial cooperation among countries. The member states reiterate that the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) does not target other countries and international organizations, and will engage in extensive cooperation with other countries and international organizations based on mutual interests and a common position to solve regional and global problems, in accordance with the purposes and principles of the United Nations Charter and the SCO Charter, as well as international legal norms.
