The SCO has only to a limited extent achieved the goals assumed at its creation, including stabilisation of the region and fighting terrorism and crime. Russia and China have developed other instruments to influence the situation in Central Asia, independent from the SCO. However, the organisation is an important instrument for creating legitimacy for their policies towards the countries of the region, as well as in limiting the influence of the EU and the U.S.}, type={file}, title={The Future Development of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation}, keywords={Chiny, Rosja, Azja Środkowa, Szanghajska Organizacja Współpracy, stosunki międzynarodowe, status i rola w systemie międzynarodowym}, }
