Tehran, IRNA – Vietnam’s Minister of Public Security General To Lam has expressed his country’s eagerness to gain Iran’s anti-narcotics experiences, which as he described are invaluable.
Vietnam is serious about fostering cooperation with Iran, the visiting general said in a meeting held in Tehran on Sunday with Iran’s Police Chief Brigadier General Ahmad-Reza Radan.
For his part, General Radan said the Islamic Republic attaches great respect to Vietnam as the Vietnamese people are a symbol of resistance against arrogance.
Referring to the geographical situation of Vietnam located in the Golden Triangle area, Radan said Tehran and Hanoi can share their anti-narcotics experiences.
In the past four decades, about 4,000 Iranian security forces have lost their lives and 12,000 others have been wounded in armed clashes with drug traffickers, according to reports.
