Hanoi (VNA) – Chief Justice of the Supreme People's Court of Vietnam Nguyen Van Quang held talks with visiting Ganzorig Damdin, Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Mongolia, in Hanoi on March 4.

Quang affirmed the steadily developing relations between the two countries, noting that judicial collaboration constitutes an important pillar, enhancing mutual understanding and contributing to the broader bilateral partnership.

He appreciated the close and dynamic partnership between the two countries’ judicial bodies in recent years, expressing confidence that the outcomes of the talks and the Mongolian delegation’s visit will further strengthen cooperation in the time ahead.

Sharing updates on Vietnam’s judicial reform efforts, he noted that the country successfully convened its 14th National Party Congress, which reaffirmed institutional development and the building of a law-governed judiciary as strategic priorities. In that process, the courts play a central role in safeguarding justice and contributing to national construction and development.

The courts help create a stable and transparent legal environment that gives investors and citizens confidence in conducting investment and business activities, he said.

For his part, Ganzorig Damdin stressed that his visit seeks to implement cooperation activities outlined in the Memorandum of Understanding on judicial cooperation between the two supreme courts.

The trip, he said, reflects the strong commitment of both sides to further advancing judicial cooperation, with a view to making it a key pillar in the overall relationship between the two countries.

During the talks, the two sides discussed orientations for future collaboration, including promoting high-level and local-level exchanges, maintaining cooperation through both in-person and online channels, and effectively implementing the signed MoU.

Priority areas include sharing experience in specialised courts on intellectual property and bankruptcy; developing adjudication mechanisms in free trade zones or high-quality investment hubs; building e-courts and digital court governance systems; and improving mechanisms for the recognition and enforcement of foreign court judgments and arbitral awards.

Following the talks, an MoU was signed between the Vietnam Court Academy and the Judicial Training, Research and Information Academy under the Supreme Court of Mongolia./.
