China and Germany agreed to establish a high-level security
dialogue mechanism in a bid to strengthen bilateral judicial cooperation and
coordinate joint efforts for dealing with non-traditional security threats
facing them, during the first China-Germany Special Dialogue Against Violent
Extremism, which was held last week, the Xinhua News Agency reported on
Tuesday.
Meng Jianzhu, special envoy of Chinese President Xi Jinping
and head of the Commission for Political and Legal Affairs of the Communist
Party of China (CPC) Central Committee, attended the dialogue.
In his keynote speech at the opening session, Meng, a member
of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee, said China and Germany
should increase exchanges on policies, practical experience, and
information-sharing.
During his stay in Berlin, Meng met separately with Head of
the German Federal Chancellery Peter Altmaier and State Secretary of
Intelligence of the Federal Chancellery Klaus-Dieter Fritsche.
They agreed that traditional and non-traditional security
issues are getting increasingly intertwined and the world is facing a complex
and volatile security situation that require cooperation in anti-terrorism,
cyber-security, fighting transnational organized crimes and on judicial issues,
to better safeguard the two countries' security interests.
Both sides also agreed to sign an agreement on judicial
mutual assistance regarding criminal cases, and start negotiations on
extradition arrangements and transfer of convicts at an early date.
