Peacekeepers deployed in Kosovo have returned home

Soldiers from the 13th National Army contingent have completed their mission in Kosovo and returned home. On this occasion, a ceremony took place today at the Ministry of Defense. For the way they fulfilled their obligations in KFOR, a group of soldiers received diplomas from the Parliament of the Republic of Moldova and the Ministry of Defense, as well as distinctions from the National Army.

According to a press release issued by the Ministry of Defense, during the event, the Minister of Defense in office, Victor Gaiciuc thanked the 40 peacekeepers for the excellent performance in the KFOR peacekeeping operation.

"I know that you had a more difficult mission, because you worked during the pandemic, in which you had to respect more than ever the safety measures in order to return home healthy, to your family. At the same time, you have managed to carry out your tasks to high standards and gain the trust of the partners you have interacted with in Kosovo. I appreciate the professionalism you have shown in these six months of office ", said Victor Gaiciuc.

The KFOR-13 contingent was in Kosovo from July 2020 to January 2021, where it carried out security, patrol and genius missions in the area of responsibility. It was replaced by another contingent of Moldovan soldiers in a ceremony held on Friday, January 15, at the Italian base "Camp Vilaggio" in Pech.
