In addition, the good outcomes of bilateral cooperation between Vietnam’s Ministry of Public Security and the Polish law enforcement agencies contributed effectively to the fight against organized crimes, transnational crimes, drug-related crimes, hi-tech crimes and human trafficking in each country, thereby contributing to ensuring security and order of each country.

Minister To Lam highly appreciated the support of the Polish General Department of Border Protection in training immigration officers of the Vietnam’s Ministry of Public Security.

During the talks, the two sides agreed on measures to promote sharing of information and exchanges of experience and boost cooperation in the field of personnel training, so as to deepen the relations between law enforcement agencies of the two countries in particular and between the two Governments, and the two nations in general.

In order to promote cooperation between the two sides in the fight against crimes, Minister To Lam suggested the two countries consider starting negotiations for the signing of an Agreement on Extradition, Agreement on the Transfer of Transfer of Sentenced Persons and Agreement on Mutual Legal Assistance, so as to create a solid and comprehensive legal corridor for the cooperation between the two sides in the increasingly complicated crime situation.
