They agreed that the General Staff of the Viet Nam People's Army and the Command-in-Chief of the Royal Cambodian Armed Forces will continue to speed up their cooperation in the future.
That cooperation will cover the exchange of visits, the personnel training, production, the sharing of defence-security information, the search and repatriation of remains of fallen Vietnamese volunteer combatants and experts in Cambodia , they said.
They went on to note that the two armies will also work to preserve and foster the traditional friendship between the two people in line with the guidelines of "good neighbourliness, traditional friendship, comprehensive cooperation and long term durability".
