Apart from members of the Military Police Battalion, the international exercise was attended by members of the Military Police from five countries with which our Army has established cooperation in the field of military police services.
The exercise was intended to advance the synchronization and coordination of capabilities for carrying out military-police tasks among the armies of the six participating countries.
As always in the past, the members of the Military Police Battalion with their professional and responsible behavior contributed to this excellent opportunity for affirmation and improvement of the reputation of the unit, as well as of the Army at an international level.
