Sen. Lt. Gen. Minh said that the two countries’ Defence
Ministries signed a memorandum of understanding on cooperation in the United
Nations’ peacekeeping activities in 2017.
However, cooperation in this field has failed to match
bilateral potential, he stated.
Therefore, he suggested both sides step up defence
delegation exchanges, information and experience sharing and personnel training
to raise the capacity of forces participating in peacekeeping missions.
It is also necessary to boost collaboration in the military
engineering field, he added.
Agreeing with Sen. Lt. Gen. Minh’s proposals, Stavitsky affirmed that
Russia is willing to support and share experience with Vietnam in the
participation in peacekeeping missions, including providing the country with
consultations on deploying a sapper company to a suitable peacekeeping mission
in the time ahead.
