The two sides held an extensive <strong>three-and-a-half-hour meeting<\/strong> covering bilateral relations, counterterrorism cooperation, police training exchanges, and coordination in areas of mutual interest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Both countries agreed to strengthen institutional mechanisms and enhance operational coordination.
