The founding members of this organization are China, Kazakhstan, Russia, Tajikistan and Kyrgyzstan, known as the "Shanghai Five". It was on June 15, 2001 that these five regional countries, along with Uzbekistan, signed the Shanghai Convention for combating terrorism, extremism, and separatism--sometimes referred to as 'the three evils'. The SCO is a combination of permanent, observer members and dialogue partners, each having divergent interests. The most recent (July 2015) significant enhancement to the SCO was the final agreement to include Pakistan and India as permanent members. It has yet to be measured whether this grouping of nations revolves more around mere rhetoric and goodwill meetings or whether the understanding can be translated into meaningful and concrete deliberations 7aSCO 7aORGANIZACIONES REGIONALES 7aSEGURIDAD 7aCOOPERACION ECONOMICA 7aSIGLO XXI 7aSHANGAI  aAwan, Zamurrad0 tPerceptions Journal of International Affairs.w020828
