A Vietnamese delegation led by Deputy Defence
Minister, Sen. Lieut. Gen. Nguyen Chi Vinh, attended the ASEAN Defence Senior
Officials’ Meeting Plus (ADSOM+) in Cambodia on April 26.
Addressing
the opening ceremony, Cambodian Deputy Prime Minister and Defence Minister Tea
Banh said with the expansion of dialogues, defence cooperation between ASEAN
countries and partners is gradually developing, especially the building of
trust and consolidation of cooperative mechanisms.
Banh
added that the building of a security community and security connectivity are
common goals that require efforts of all parties to realise.
He also
called on ASEAN member countries and dialogue partners to firmly uphold their
key and active role towards becoming an extremely important force to build
regional security in a transparent and open manner, helping step up the
establishment of the bloc’s political and security community by 2015.
The
participants are scheduled to discuss regional security and defence issues, and
reach a consensus on a draft to increase the frequency of the ASEAN Defence
Ministers’ Meeting (ADMM+) to every two years instead of every three years at
present.
As a
venue to discuss security and defence issues, ADMM+ was held for the first time
in 2010 with 10 member countries and dialogue partners taking part, including
Australia, China, India, Japan, the Republic of Korea, New Zealand, Russia and
the US.
