At the meeting, Binh affirmed that Vietnam and Hungary hold time-honoured friendship, solidarity and co-operation, which is reflected through a number of signed agreements.

In 2011, the two countries’ courts signed a memorandum of understanding on judicial co-operation, which has served as a foundation for them to carry out collaborative activities and to share information and tighten mutual understanding, he said.

He also appreciated the partnership between the two Justice Ministries, especially in the signing of their co-operation agreement.

Speaking highly of the role of the Vietnam Supreme People’s Court, László Trócsányi informed the host of new points in the Civil Procedure Code and Criminal Procedure Code of Hungary to be approved.

He also shared his opinions with the Vietnamese Chief Justice on several issues of mutual concern.

The Hungarian minister is on a working visit to Vietnam from March 14-17, which aims to further strengthen judicial co-operation in particular and bilateral friendship and co-operation in general.
