Vietnam, US boost defence ties

At the meeting, Giang highlighted the progress in military-defence cooperation between Vietnam and the US in the past time. 

The sides have organised joint activities in war aftermath alleviation, search and rescue, and unexploded ordnance disposal, as well as shared experience in UN peacekeeping missions, he added. 

For his part, the US commander said the visit to Vietnam is an opportunity for his delegation to learn about the country, local people and its current training methods for search and rescue missions. 

He noted that he wants bilateral cooperation and experience exchanges to be expanded in the coming time, particularly in human resources training, disaster relief services, and UN peacekeeping tasks. 

Earlier, Deputy Chief of the General Staff of the Vietnam People’s Army Pham Hong Huong also had a meeting with Brown.
