Although
this was the first such training experienced by our armed forces, the
Monogolian peacekeeping force proved it could meet the goals set by
the UN peacekeeping-related organizations. So, it is an attainable goal,
for Mongolia, to effectively train and prepare all our peacekeepers.
To this end, the first professional platoon of the Mongolian Armed Forces,
the "Snow Leopards", successfully carried out their missions
in the international exercise in Kazakhstan. They fulfilled their mission
and raised the military’s prestige in Mongolian society.
