On August 15, the U.S. Embassy joined Armenian members of the Armenian
Peace Keeping Brigade at Zvartnots Airport to send off 116 Armenian
peacekeepers who will train alongside American, Romanian and Ukrainian
soldiers in Germany. The Armenian personnel will train for three weeks
and are expected to return to Armenia on September 4.
In Germany, the Armenian peacekeepers will prepare for their upcoming
tours in Kosovo, where they will be based at the U.S. Bondsteel
Military Base, near the city of Urosevac, and serve for 6-month
rotations. In Kosovo, the peacekeepers will be responsible for
conducting patrols, checkpoint security, riot and crowd control, and
convoy activity. The joint Armenian-U.S. peacekeeping brigade in
Kosovo is underwritten by a Memorandum of Understanding between the
Armenian Ministry of Defense and the U.S. Army in Europe.
