A new regional counter-narcotics facility will be established in Dushanbe under an agreement set for signing during the upcoming Shanghai Cooperation Organization summit. The initiative represents one of approximately twenty documents scheduled for formal adoption by member states during the gathering.
The announcement confirms plans for creating the specialized center focused on combating drug trafficking through coordinated regional efforts. The Tajik capital’s selection as the facility’s location underscores Central Asia’s strategic importance in international narcotics control operations.
The summit will also host commemorative events marking the conclusion of World War II, with multiple national leaders expected to participate. The high-level meetings come amid ongoing regional security discussions within the SCO framework, which continues to expand its cooperative initiatives across multiple domains including law enforcement and public safety.
