As a reminder, INTERPOL is the world’s largest international police organisation, with 194 member countries. Its purpose is to enable police around the world to work together to make the world safer.<\/p>\n
The INTERPOL General Assembly brings together delegates appointed by the governments of the member countries of the organisation. It is the highest governing body of the Organization.<\/p>\n
It is held once a year and makes all important decisions regarding policy, resources for international cooperation, working methods, finances, and Interpol activities. As part of its legal activities, it elects the members of the Executive Committee of the Organization. Not to forget, the President and the Secretary-General also.<\/p>\n
