Oružane snage Mali-ja broje oko 7000 vojnika i nalaze se pod kontrolom
Ministra oružanih snaga i veterana. Unutarnji red održavaju žandarmerija
i lokalne policije. Šezdesetih i sedamdesetih oružane snage su uglavnom
ovisile o sovjetskoj pomoći, u školovanju i opremanju vojske i
avijacije. Nekoliko je Malijaca završilo i vojne škole u SAD, Francuskoj
i Njemačkoj. KoV kontrolira i malu mornaricu, sa 130 mornara i tri
patrolna broda. Nakon pada SSSR-a i prestanka Tuareške pobune, usprkos
pomoći SAD-a vojska se bori da bi zadržala svoju brojnost. Organizirani
su u jednu brigadu sa četiri motorizirana pješadijska bataljona te dva
oklopna. Specijalne snage se sastoje od jednog padobranskog bataljona i
dvije čete komandosa. Vojni rok traje dvije godine, a ljudstvo se
odabire selektivnom regrutacijom. |

Mali's armed forces number some 7,000 and are under the control of the
Minister of Armed Forces and Veterans. The Gendarmerie and local police
forces (under the Ministry of Territorial Administration and Security)
maintain internal security. In the sixties and seventies, Mali's army
and air force relied primarily on the
Soviet Union
for materiel and training. A few Malians receive military training in
the
United States,
France,
and
Germany.
Military expenditures total about 13% of the national budget. The Army
controls the small navy (approx. 130 sailors and 3 river patrol boats).
Since the collapse of the
Soviet Union
and the end of the
Tuareg Rebellion,
the Army has struggled to maintain its size, despite recent military aid
from the
United States.
It is organized into a single brigade consisting of four motorized
infantry battalions, an MBT battalion operating
T-34/85s,
and a light armoured battalion of
Type 62s.
An airborne battalion and two companies of commandos comprise the
nation's special forces. Manpower is provided by two-year selective
conscription. |
