The Ministry of Interior, represented by the Police College, has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the International Criminal Police Organization (INTERPOL), on the sidelines of the First Major Event Safety and Security Conference.
HE Advisor to the Minister of the Interior and Vice-President of the Supreme Council of the Police College Major General Dr. Abdullah Yousuf Al Mal signed the MoU with the INTERPOL Secretary-General Jurgen Stok.
In press statements, Major General Dr. Abdullah Al Mal said that since its establishment, the Police College has been using various international academies, colleges and universities and international organizations to promote the college and develop its academic and training curricula.
He noted that the MoU signed today between the Police College and the International Criminal Police Organization (INTERPOL) came after talks started two years ago in New York City. It was agreed on the common grounds for implementing programs for students nominated under the supervision of INTERPOL.
For his part, the INTERPOL Secretary-General said: “It is important that we stand side by side, share and exchange information and help each other develop the capabilities and skills police need to investigate cross-border crimes. This requires us to invest in police education and training, so the cooperation agreement between INTERPOL and the Qatar Police College is critical to capacity building”.
He said that the protection of major sporting events is a priority for security men around the world and of course “we look forward to seeing the 2022 FIFA World Cup here in Qatar”.
He stressed the importance of the First Major Event Safety and Security Conference as the world is facing unprecedented levels of global threats, including terrorism, organized crime and emerging cybercrime, so international police cooperation is becoming more important than ever.
The Secretary-General of INTERPOL said that Qatar is investing a great deal in hosting this event and has important initiatives to develop the tools at the international level, build a global platform to support Interpol and also develop the joint project, “STADIA,” which is financed by Qatar.
“We have built a platform through which many experts around the world can meet not only for law enforcement but also to communicate with the private sector and academics to share their knowledge and help each other prepare and secure these major events,” he added
