Dmitry Medvedev’s speech at the SCO Heads of Government Council restricted attendance meeting:

The restricted attendance meeting of the SCO Heads of Government Council

Our meeting today is special. For the first time, our colleagues from India and Pakistan will participate in the SCO Heads of Government Council Meeting. Today, Russia’s chairmanship in the Heads of Government Council ends. Our work’s priority was to give a new impetus to the organisation’s development and, of course, to promote trade, economic and humanitarian ties and to ensure security.

I hope that the discussion both in restricted attendance and expanded formats will enhance effective connections on our already widened platform for national development strategies and integration initiatives.

In any case, we must think about the future and move forward.
