They also agreed to enhance the SCO's role as an efficient and comprehensive regional bloc, so as to promote multilateralism and a community of shared destiny for mankind.
Welcoming Kazakhstan's election as a non-permanent member of the UN Security Council in 2017-2018, the leaders said inter-governmental negotiations on the reform of the Security Council should seek a comprehensive solution based on extensive consultations, rather than set a deadline and force through plans that have not earned wide support among members.
On the fight against international terrorism, the leaders said a full-fledged UN convention and 19 comprehensive legal documents in this regard should be approved as soon as possible.
They also called for more cooperation among SCO countries in such areas as information security, anti-corruption, infrastructure and financial projects to support regional connectivity.
Specifically, the governments of SCO members should commit to facilitating cross-border transportation and road network construction, and furthering their cooperation in the fields of agriculture and customs, according to the communique.
The leaders encouraged the governments and business circles of the SCO observer states and dialogue partners to participate in the bloc's cooperation projects.
The presidents also vowed to enhance people-to-people and cultural exchanges within the bloc.
The next summit will be held in June 2018 in China, which will take the SCO's rotating presidency upon conclusion of this Astana meeting, said the communique.
