Ministry of Chinese Public Security, Guo Shengkun, stated during a meeting of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization Security Council secretaries meeting held in Dushanbe on Thursday that the SCO member-states are under the threat of external forces, which are initiating “color revolutions”.
He noted that external forces are trying to provoke a new wave of “color revolutions”, using socio-economic contradictions and problems.
The Chinese Minister said: “This represents a serious threat to the sovereignty and security of the region’s countries, and is a common concern to the SCO member-states.”
Mr. Guo noted that the SCO should join forces and work out joint measures to combat interference in the internal affairs of the countries. He proposed strengthening the management of NGOs and to strengthen control over social networks in order to “identify, analyze, prevent, and resolve scenarios of ‘color revolutions’ repetition in a timely manner in order to strengthen peace and stability in the region.”
Currently, China, Russia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, and Uzbekistan are SCO member-states.
