Through bilateral patrols, violations of Vietnam-Laos border agreements and regulations have been promptly detected and handled, maintaining political security and social order and safety in the border area; and promoting the special friendship between the forces and people on both sides of the border.
The above activities further strengthen the special friendship, solidarity, cooperation and development between Vietnam and Laos.
