The Chinese government attaches great importance to judicial cooperation within the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) framework and will work with other SCO members to constantly enhance the level of judicial cooperation, said President Hu Jintao.

 

"We will work with governments of the SCO countries to improve the judicial cooperation mechanism and constantly enhance the level of judicial cooperation in accordance with the 'Shanghai Spirit', Charter of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization and other relevant legal documents," Hu said in a congratulatory letter sent to the first SCO supreme court presidents conference, which opened Thursday in China's eastern city of Shanghai.
