Slovenian Peacekeeping
Genuine commitments require practical implementation. Maintenance of internationl peace and security remains a paramount purpose of the United Nations. Therefore, the contribution to the United Nations activities in this area, notably peacekeeping, is one of the most important duties of its Members States. Slovenia has been aware of this ever since the proclamation of its independence on 25 June 1991 and its admission to the United Nations less than a year later.
Slovenian troops have participated or are currently taking part in the following peacekeeping operations and projects:
- Operation Alba
- UNFICYP
- SFOR
- UNTSO
- KFOR
- UNTAET
