DUSHANBE, July 21, 2008, Asia-Plus  — A session of the council of foreign ministers of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) that will be held in Dushanbe on July 25 will consider the possibility of lifting a moratorium on admitting new member nations to the organizations, the source at the Russian MFA told reporters at the end of last week, according to the InfoSCO website.

Russian diplomat was quoted as saying that the moratorium has lasted for two years, and “we have now decided to consider the possibility of the SCO”s enlargement.”  

 The SCO foreign ministers’ session in Dushanbe will also discuss the agenda for the regional grouping’s upcoming summit that is scheduled to take place in the Tajik capital next month.

The SCO is the regional group, which primarily addresses security issues, but has recently moved to embrace various economic and energy projects.
