Highlights from the exercise posted frum US Ambassy in Tirana!
In May and June Albania hosted significant aspects of Defender Europe 21, an annual large-scale, multinational, joint exercise designed to build readiness and interoperability between U.S., NATO, and partner militaries. More than 26,000 multinational forces from 27 nations conducted nearly simultaneous operations across more than 30 training areas in more than a dozen countries from the Baltics to the Balkans and Black Sea Region.
Although Defender Europe 21 is over, we continue to train together, work together, and remain, side by side always.
