Interpol – Meeting between Jean-Yves Le Drian and Jürgen Stock, Secretary General of Interpol (Paris, 27 July 2020)

Jean-Yves Le Drian, Minister for Europe and Foreign Affairs, met today with Jürgen Stock, Secretary General of Interpol.

This meeting, which follows on from their previous exchanges, reflects the importance of the cooperation between France and Interpol and the work of this international organization, which has had its headquarters in France since its creation in 1923.

Interpol plays a fundamental and essential role in strengthening international operational cooperation in the fight against terrorism and transnational crime, which remains a priority for France’s international action.

On this basis, France intends to continue to actively support the organization’s work over the next few months, both in terms of its operation and the implementation of the priorities it has set itself, in conjunction with its member states.
