Abstract

ABSTRACTThis article discusses the history of the Central Asian Armed Forces’ involvement with peacekeeping and their current efforts to build peacekeeping units. The governments of Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, and Tajikistan have had an interest in taking part in international peacekeeping missions, and NATO has provided security assistance to each to develop a peacekeeping unit. These units have been working on becoming interoperable with NATO forces with the goal of deploying on an international peacekeeping mission. An examination of the development of Central Asian peacekeeping units gives some idea of what these governments look for in security cooperation partnerships, when these units might deploy on a peacekeeping mission, and the impact this could have for the governments and armed forces of Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, and Tajikistan.
