NATO Holds Training Course At Azerbaijan's National Defence University
(MENAFN- AzerNews)
The Military Management Institute under the National Defense
University is hosting a training course on 'NATO Operational
Planning Process', Azernews reports citing the ministry.
The course is being held by NATO's Allied Joint Force Command
Mobile Training Team located in Brunssum (Netherlands) under the
Individual Partnership Cooperation Program for 2022, signed between
the Defence Ministry and the organization, the report adds.
During the course, participants are being briefed on NATO in
general, staffing, and operations planning. Moreover, discussions
on the topic and practical group work are being held as a part of
the training.
Relations with NATO started in 1992 when Azerbaijan joined the
North Atlantic Cooperation Council. This forum for dialogue was
succeeded in 1997 by the Euro-Atlantic Partnership Council, which
brings together all Allies and partner countries in the
Euro-Atlantic area.
Bilateral cooperation began when Azerbaijan joined the
Partnership for Peace (PfP) program in 1994. Thanks to regular
participation in PfP activities, Azerbaijan has been able to
contribute actively to Euro-Atlantic security by supporting
NATO-led peace-support operations.
Azerbaijan's participation in the PfP Planning and Review
Process (PARP) since 1997 has allowed NATO and individual Allies to
assist Azerbaijan in developing selected units to improve
interoperability with those of the Allies.
NATO and Azerbaijan started work on a jointly agreed Defence
Education Enhancement Programme (DEEP) in 2008 to integrate NATO
standards into the teaching methodologies and curricula of the
country's Professional Military Education (PME) institutions.
In 2018, Azerbaijan asked NATO to also involve the Military High
School, a pre-commissioning school, in DEEP.
