Number of people wishing to join this "club of interests" is growing. Russia is becoming a bigger impact on the Asian energy market. On Thursday in Bishkek was completed the next summit of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO), which, along with Russia, permanent members are China, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan, as well as India, Iran, Mongolia and Pakistan - as observers. On July 15, 2001 SCO was originally created as the League of collective security to combat terrorism, separatism, extremism and drug trafficking, has come a long way and continues to bring more tangible benefits - now, not only in international cooperation and security in Eurasia, but also terms of trade and economic cooperation. In this case Russia, which was originally played a key role in the SCO continues to be an active promoter of the organization, thereby not only confirming its role as the core countries of central Eurasia, but also finding an increasing impact on the Asian energy market. That, given the situation in the country, and its special role as the most powerful on the continent of the world energy supplier, it is extremely important against the backdrop of the coming energy crisis.
