Bangladesh in UN Peacekeeping Mission

It is a matter of great pride for us that Bangladesh has secured the top rank in sending troops to the United Nations peacekeeping missions amongst 118 countries, according to the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) Directorate. It regained the position after sending a 160-member Quick Reaction Force in Central African Republic on July 17.

Currently, a total of 6,731 Bangladeshis are employed in different peacekeeping missions. While we know how dangerous the global situation has been since the year began, it surely is reassuring to know our soldiers are doing whatever necessary to fulfil their peacekeeping objectives. I wish them luck in their missions.
