What are the challenges associated with SCO?<\/h5>\n

1)<\/strong> New lines of fracture within SCO<\/strong>: There is growing unease among the SCO member states at the continuing conflict in Ukraine. Many states, especially the former republics of the Soviet Union, are deeply worried about Russia doing a \u201cUkraine\u201d on them. So these republics are looking to establish other partnerships, especially with China, Turkey, and India to enhance their strategic autonomy.<\/p>\n

2)<\/strong> Lack of direct connectivity with India<\/strong>: India\u2019s ability to contribute to peace and prosperity in Eurasia is hampered due to a lack of direct connectivity to the region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What should India do as an SCO chair?<\/h5>\n

a)<\/strong> Despite the tensions, India needs to ensure the participation of all SCO members including China and Pakistan, b)<\/strong> Improve the connectivity with the Eurasian region<\/strong>: India must push through new connectivity initiatives with Eurasia. The entry of Iran into the forum opens the door for greater connectivity, c)<\/strong> On terrorism, India will have to ensure the SCO walks the talk on building a new consolidated list of terrorist groups.<\/p>\n

India will also have to balance its ties, especially as the polarisation between the U.S.-EU coalition and a Russia-China-led combine continues to grow.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
