Oružane snage
Demokratske Republike Kongo (francuski: Forces armées de la république
démocratique du Congo [FARDC]) su državna organizacija odgovorna za
obranu Demokratske Republike Kongo. FARDC je postupno obnavljan kao dio
mirovnog procesa koji je uslijedio nakon završetka Drugog rata u Kongu
2003. Većina pripadnika FARDC-a su kopnene snage, ali također ima male
zračne snage i još manju mornaricu. U razdoblju 2010.–11. tri su službe
možda imale između 144.000 i 159.000 pripadnika. Osim toga, postoje
predsjedničke snage koje se zovu Republikanska garda, ali ona i
Kongoanska nacionalna policija (PNC) nisu dio oružanih snaga. |
The Armed Forces of the Democratic Republic of the Congo (French: Forces
armées de la république démocratique du Congo [FARDC]) is the state
organisation responsible for defending the Democratic Republic of the
Congo. The FARDC was rebuilt patchily as part of the peace process which
followed the end of the Second Congo War in July 2003. The majority of
FARDC members are land forces, but it also has a small air force and an
even smaller navy. In 2010–11 the three services may have numbered
between 144,000 and 159,000 personnel. In addition, there is a
presidential force called the Republican Guard, but it and the Congolese
National Police (PNC) are not part of the Armed Forces. |

(EUFOR), bila je kratkoročna vojna misija pod vodstvom EU-a i
odobrena od strane UN-a u DR Kongu tijekom sukoba u Ituri. Dana 30.
05. 2003. Vijeće sigurnosti UN-a donijelo je Rezoluciju 1484 kojom
se odobrava upućivanje Privremenih multinacionalnih snaga za hitne
slučajeve (IMEF) u Buniu sa zadaćom osiguranja zračne luke, zaštite
interno raseljenih osoba u kampovima i civila u gradu. Vojne snage
bile su iz Belgije, Brazila, Kanade, Francuske, Grčke, Južne Afrike,
Švedske i Ujedinjenog Kraljevstva. Osoblje u sjedištu dolazi iz
Austrije, Cipra, Mađarske, Irske, Italije, Luksemburga, Nizozemske,
Portugala, Španjolske i Njemačke. |
Operacija Artemis pokrenuta je 12. 06. i u sljedeća tri tjedna
dovršeno je raspoređivanje snaga. Snage su bile uspješne u
stabilizaciji situacije u Buniji i jačanju prisutnosti UN-a u DR
Kongu. 01. 09. 2003. odgovornost za sigurnost regije predana je
misiji MONUC. Operacija Artemis bila je misija pod vodstvom EU-a s
Francuskom kao "vodećom nacijom" koja je osigurala većinu osoblja
(900 od 1400 vojnika) i nadopunjena doprinosima zemalja EU-a i
zemalja izvan EU-a. Snage su imale podršku francuskih zrakoplova
baziranih na aerodromima N'Djamena i Entebbe. Dodana je i mala grupa
švedskih specijalnih snaga (SSG - Särskilda skyddsgruppen) i FJS IK,
pri čemu je potonja elitna posebno obučena četa iz švedske škole
padobranaca. |

Operation Artemis, formally European Union Force Democratic Republic
of the Congo (EUFOR), was a short-term EU-led UN-authorised military
mission to the DR Congo during the Ituri conflict. On 30 May 2003,
the UN Security Council adopted the Resolution 1484 authorising the
deployment of an Interim Multinational Emergency Force (IMEF) to
Bunia with a task to secure the airport, protect internally
displaced persons in camps and the civilians in the town. Military
forces were from Belgium, Brazil, Canada, France, Greece, South
Africa, Sweden and United Kingdom. Headquarters staff comes from
Austria, Cyprus, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands,
Portugal, Spain and Germany. |
Operation Artemis was launched on 12 June and the IMEF completed its
deployment in the following three weeks. The force was successful in
stabilizing the situation in Bunia and enforcing the UN presence in
the DRC. On 1 September 2003, responsibility for the security of the
region was handed over to the MONUC mission. Operation Artemis was
an EU-led mission with France as the "Lead nation" providing the
bulk of the personnel (900 of the 1400 troops) and complemented by
contributions from both EU and non-EU nations. The force was
supported by French aircraft based at N’Djamena and Entebbe
airfields. A small Swedish Special Forces group (SSG -
Särskilda skyddsgruppen) and FJS IK, the latter being an elite
specially trained company from the Swedish Parachute Ranger School
was also added. |
