However, realising the objectives of this governing mandate, in the field of order and public security, challenges hosting the State Police, require a faster pace and big dynamic work. For this reason a new leadership is necessary, with new energies to motivate and advance the work of the State Police. The job of the latter should necessarily be oriented towards concrete results in order to respond, thus better the demands of this new phase and the high expectations of the public and international partners towards the State Police.
