The relevance of the attached scientific material is due to the fact that the Shanghai Cooperation Organization has now become a promising platform on a regional scale, where dialogue can be carried out between member states to establish constructive cooperation with states and international organizations in order to respond to security challenges in a timely manner. In this regard, the activities of the SCO are of particular importance in light of the complex and difficult to predict internal political and military situation in Afghanistan as a result of the withdrawal of US and NATO troops from there, as well as the establishment of Taliban power in the country.
