"Today we announce that as Turkey, our destiny is the same as those states of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization," Davutoglu said following the signing ceremony.

"The partnership would strengthen Turkey's ties with the organization especially in the fields of economy and transportation, and would provide the opportunity of collectively fighting against threats," Davutoglu added.
