Jurgen Stock acknowledged the close cooperation between Vietnam’s Ministry of Public Security and the relevant departments under the Interpol Secretariat, in exchanging information on crime prevention and fighting, as well as in implementing Interpol programmes in the Asia-Pacific region.
He also appreciated Vietnam’s seconded officers at Interpol Secretariat in Lyon, France and its Singapore-based Interpol Global Complex.
Close cooperation between Interpol and its member nations is important in the fight against crime, amidst increasing threats from terrorism, non-traditional security risks and organised crimes, Stock said.
President Tran Dai Quang expressed his delight at the fruitful cooperation between Vietnam’s Public Security Ministry and Interpol in the fight against transnational crimes and highly appreciates the effective support the Interpol General Secretariat has provided for the Ministry over the past years.
The President called on Interpol leaders and Vietnam’s Ministry of Public Security to maintain contact via delegation exchanges and annual meetings of the General Assembly of Interpol.
He also asked the organisation to give priority to helping Vietnam train law enforcement officers and create favourable conditions for Vietnamese officers to work at the Interpol Secretariat.
