On this occasion, he suggested Gawkowski promote the exchange of delegations at all levels, share information and experience, and establish communication channels for bilateral cooperation among relevant agencies, with focus on combating transnational crime, international terrorism, drug trafficking, cybercrime, human trafficking, illegal immigration, and other criminal activities.
He emphasized the need to enhance cooperation in training and bettering professional skills for law enforcement officers; support each other's positions on common international issues at regional and global forums; facilitate the stable, legal residence and business activities of the Vietnamese community in Poland by simplifying visa procedures for Vietnamese citizens entering Poland for investment, trade, study, and tourism purposes.
