Forum highlights cross-border law enforcement

Law enforcement departments of countries along the Belt and Road Initiative are enhancing cooperation in the pursuit of fugitives, as well as in anti-terrorism efforts and intellectual property protection, according to the Ministry of Public Security.

Niu Haifeng, a director in the ministry's international cooperation bureau, said that transnational cooperation is crucial for countries to tackle problems emerging with globalization.

"Many countries are dealing with increasing safety challenges brought on by globalization and population mobility - terrorism and corrupt officials fleeing the country, for example. We hope that a strengthened transnational safety cooperation mechanism can be developed so that law enforcement departments can work more practically and effectively."
