📋 Tender Overview
Uzbekistans chairmanship in the SCO has fallen on a dynamic period fraught with various events and trends the period of the historical rift when one era comes to an end and another begins thus far unpredictable and unknown.The modern system of international cooperation based on the universal principles and norms begins to falter. One of the main reasons for this is a deep crisis of trust at the global level which in turn provokes a geopolitical confrontation and the risk of reviving the bloc thinking stereotypes. This process of mutual alienation complicates the return of the world economy to its former course of development and the restoration of global supply chains.The ongoing armed conflicts in different parts of the world destabilize trade and investment flows exacerbate the problems of ensuring food and energy security.Along with this global climate shocks growing scarcity of natural and water resources decline in biodiversity spread of dangerous infectious diseases have exposed the vulnerability of our societies as never before. They lead to destruction of existential common goods threatening the basis of peoples life and reducing sources of income.In these circumstances it is obvious that no country alone can hope to avoid or cope with these global risks and challenges.There is only one way out of the dangerous spiral of problems in an interconnected world where we all live today - through a constructive dialogue and multilateral cooperation based on consideration and respect to the interests of everyone. It is exactly at the time of crisis when all the countries whether they are large medium or small by size must put aside their narrow interests and focus on such mutual interaction unite and multiply the common efforts and possibilities to counter the threats and challenges to peace security and sustainable development that are related to each of us.The effective international cooperation makes the world more stable predictable and prosperous. This is the most viable accessible and closest way to solving common problems of our time as well as a universal insurance policy against the future challenges and shocks. A Model for Successful Regional CooperationThe international cooperation that lays in the interest of everyone is impossible without multilateral institutions. Despite the certain shortcomings they continue to serve as the most important agents of interaction between the countries - at the regional and global levels. The international and regional organizations help countries to overcome the differences and strengthen mutual understanding to develop political and economic cooperation to expand trade and stimulate cultural and humanitarian exchanges.These are the goals and objectives that are pursued by one of the youngest multilateral institutions - the Shanghai Cooperation Organization SCO. In fact it is a unique interstate structure that has managed to unite countrieswith different cultural and civilizational codes their own foreign policy guidelines and models of national development. In a relatively short historical period the SCO has come a long way becoming an integral element of the modern global political and economic world order.Today the SCO family is the worlds largest regional organization which has united a huge geographical space and about a half of the population of our planet.The basis for the SCOs international attractiveness is its non-bloc status openness non-targeting against third countries or the international organizations equality and respect for the sovereignty of all participants refusal to interfere in the internal affairs as well as prevention of political confrontation and unhealthy rivalry.The SCOs success concept is the promotion of multifaceted cooperation through ensuring regional security.In fact the Shanghai Cooperation Organization is called upon to become a pole of attraction without dividing lines in the name of peace cooperation and progress.Therefore the number of states that are ready to cooperate with the SCO is growing every year and this is especially noticeable in the context of the transformation of the modern system of international and regional relations.The economic value of the SCO is enhanced by the self-sufficiency of its space where there are dynamically developing economies of the world with huge human intellectual and technological potential and the existence of large volumes of unused natural resources.Today the total GDP of the SCO member states has reached about a quarter of the global figure. This is already a very solid contribution to the global sustainable development from a regional organization that has just crossed its 20-year threshold.In a world with the new challenges and opportunities the SCO has excellent prospects for transformation and growth not only through quantitative replenishment but also through the opening of new strategic vectors. These are transport and connectivity energy food and environmental security innovations digital transformation and green economy.Uzbekistans Chairmanship towards Common Success through Joint DevelopmentAccepting responsible mission of Chairmanship in the SCO the Republic of Uzbekistan has relied on the strategy of advancing the development of the Organization by opening up new horizons for cooperation and launching usage of untapped reserves that each of its members has.Our slogan is The SCO is strong if each of us is strong. Implementing this we have made serious efforts to make the Organization even stronger from the inside and more attractive from the outside to our international partners.At the platforms of more than eighty major events held during the year a comprehensive agenda was formed for the SCO starting from the issues of further expanding cooperation in the security strengthening transport and economic connectivity and positioni
