This article examines the role of regional integration organizations in international relations through the case studies of the European Union (EU) and the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO). The EU is analyzed as a successful model of economic and political integration, while the SCO is considered as an important platform for security and geopolitical cooperation. The study explores similarities and differences between the two organizations and evaluates their impact on regional and global stability.
