UN / INTERPOL Cooperation

United Nations, New York, 12 october 2009 - The Secretary-General had a video message this weekend welcoming a new agreement between the United Nations and International Criminal Police Organization (INTERPOL) to enhance policing cooperation in post-conflict areas.

Ban Ki-moon called the two organizations natural partners in boosting security and peace. He said that an action plan on global police peacekeeping is essential. And he appealed for continued support to help victims of conflict and promote greater respect for the rule of law.

The UN Under-Secretary-General for Peacekeeping Operations, Alain Le Roy, attended the meeting in Singapore and signed the agreement on behalf of the UN. Representatives from some 60 countries at that meeting are also expected to endorse a special Declaration setting a roadmap for police to play its full role in meeting today's peacekeeping challenges.

Interpol needs to be stronger, there should be some international law which allows Interpol to work more efficiently in every part of the world.
