connections between the MPS and the MVD, has continually been reinforced and
developed. He also highly valued the ministries’ cooperation in recent years.

and growing international integration have created both opportunities and
challenges, posing risk to security and social order and safety of many
countries, including Vietnam and Russia. The emergence of many new crimes,
especially transnational and organised crimes, terrorism, hi-tech crime, human
trafficking and drug-related crimes, calls for closer and more effective
cooperation between the MPS and the
He said in the time ahead, the two sides need to focus on improving the quality
of delegation exchanges, sharing information and experience in crime fight in a
timely manner, and working together to investigate, verify and hunt criminals
of Russian and Vietnamese nationalities hiding in the two countries.
Russia and Vietnam need to enhance cooperation so as to prevent any
organisations or individuals from taking advantage of one country’s territories
to carry out sabotage activities against the other. They should also ensure
security and safety for each other’s diplomatic representative agencies,
entrepreneurs, students and expatriates.
The official called on the two sides to step up ties in improving the capacity
of their law enforcement staff, especially in defence and military techniques,
as well as in fighting hi-tech, drug and economic crimes.
Nam also asked the MVD to support the MPS with specialised equipment and
vehicles made by Russia and consider transferring technology and partnering in
the production of equipment and vehicles for crime prevention and combat in
Vietnam.
At the working session, the two ministries signed an action coordination
programme for 2019-2021.
