Since 1999, the Kosovo force, or KFOR, has been providing security in Kosovo, with a current contingent of approximately 5,000 troops from 31 countries (23 NATO and 8 KFOR partners).
KFOR is cooperating with and assisting the UN, the EU and other international actors in supporting the development of a stable, democratic, multi-ethnic and peaceful Kosovo.
We look at the current role of partner nation Moldova, a country looking to forge closer ties with NATO and Europe, and whose Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) clearing teams ensure a safe environment for the local population as well as other troops in operating in Kosovo.
