On March 22, Deputy Minister Hoang The Lien had a meeting with Dr Andreas Jakob Albert Keller, President of the Federal Criminal Court of Switzerland on the occasion of his working visit to Vietnam.

The Deputy Minister warmly welcomed the chief judge’s visit and expressed his joy to receive him and his delegation. Evaluating bilateral cooperation, the Deputy Minister said that the legal and judicial cooperation  did not match Switzerland's potential and long-term friendly relations between the two countries. Therefore, he expected the visit of the Chief Justice would pave the way for future effective cooperation between Vietnam and Switzerland. On this occasion, the Deputy Minister briefly introduced the organizational structure, functions and tasks of the Justice Ministry of Vietnam.

Two sides also exchanged views on the role of the Ministry of Justice in legal assistance activities and a number of criminal procedure issues  such as choosing the model of Criminal Procedure, the role of lawyers in criminal proceedings in Vietnam...
