Belgija, članica NATO alijanse i EU trenutno vrši restrukturiranje svojih oružanih snaga da bi mogle brže reagirati u slučajevima humanitarnih kriza ili katastrofa u svijetu. Da bi to postigli, belgijska kopnena komponenta mijenja sva vozila gusjeničare sa onima koji imaju kotače, naprimjer kupljena su vozila MOWAG Piranha i Dingo 2 da bi zamijenili dosadašnje Leopard 1A5BE. Zračna komponenta kupuje nove avione kao što je npr Airbus A400M da bi zajedno sa ostalim letjelicama bili što pokretljiviji i mogli prevesti veći broj trupa ili opreme (npr. helikopteri Agusta 109 i Alouette 3). Planirano je da će ove promjene biti završene do kraja 2015. godine.

      Vijeće Evropske Unije odlučuje 12. 06. 2004. godine (Council Joint Action 2004/570/CFSP of 12 July 2004) poduzeti vojnu akciju u Bosni i Hercegovini unutar okvira svoje „Evropske sigurnosne i obrambene politike (ESDP). Operacija nazvana ALTHEA počinje 02. 12. 2004. Slijedeći odluku Vijeća iz 12. mjeseca 2006, EUFOR je uspješno transformiran tokom 2007. Na terenu snage sada broje negdje oko 2500 ljudi, sa mogućnošću brzog ojačanja snagama EU. U Sarajevu je stacioniran multinacionalni bataljon, dok su po drugim regijama raspoređeni LOT timovi (veza i promatrački).

     The Council of the European Union decided on 12 July 2004 (Council Joint Action 2004/570/CFSP of 12 July 2004) to conduct a military operation in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) in the framework of the European Security and Defence Policy (ESDP). Operation ALTHEA in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) was launched on 2 December 2004. Following a Council decision in December 2006, EUFOR was successfully reconfigured during 2007. The force now numbers some 2500 troops on the ground, backed up by over-the-horizon reserves. EUFOR is able to respond rapidly should the security situation require it. A multinational manoeuvre battalion is based in Sarajevo and EUFOR also retains its presence throughout the country through the liaison and observation teams (LOTs). EUFOR continues to act in accordance with its peace enforcement mandate under Chapter VII of the UN Charter, which was renewed by the Security Council on 21 November 2007 (Security Council Resolution 1785). EUFOR actively continues to provide support to the ICTY in pursuit of persons indicted for war crimes. On 19 November 2007, EU ministers reiterated that the EU would retain a military presence in the country for as long as necessary in order to continue to contribute to the maintenance of a safe and secure environment.

      Operacija Artemis, formalno Snage EU u Demokratskoj Republici Kongo (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.

MULTINATIONAL CORPS NORTH EAST  MULTINACIONALNI KOPUS SJEVERO-ISTOK

      1997. ministri obrane Danske, Njemačke i Poljske odlučili su osnovati dansko-njemačko-poljski korpus. Ovaj je korpus trebao dobiti naziv Multinacionalni korpus Sjeveroistok (Multinational Corps Northeast, MNC NE). Multinacionalni korpus Sjeveroistok formiran je 18. rujna 1999. u Szczecinu u Poljskoj, koji je postao njegovo sjedište. Razvio se iz dugogodišnjeg jedinog multinacionalnog korpusa u NATO-u, savezničkih kopnenih snaga Schleswig-Holstein i Jutland (LANDJUT). Trinacionalna radna skupina osnovana je nakon odluke iz srpnja 1997. da Poljska treba biti primljena u NATO. Multinacionalni korpus Sjeveroistok ima ključnu funkciju u integraciji novih država članica NATO-a.

      In July 1997, Ministers of Defence of Denmark, Germany and Poland decided to establish a Danish-German-Polish Corps. This corps was to be named Multinational Corps Northeast. Multinational Corps Northeast was formed on 18 September 1999 at Szczecin, Poland, which became its headquarters. It evolved from what was for many years the only multinational corps in NATO, Allied Land Forces Schleswig-Holstein and Jutland  (LANDJUT). A tri-national working group was established following the July 1997 decision that Poland was to be admitted to NATO. Multinational Corps North East has a key function in the integration of new NATO member states.

In 2015 Turkish, British, French and Dutch officers started their tours of duty in Szczecin. Canada, Iceland, Belgium, Norway and Greece joined the Corps in 2016.

MULTINATIONAL DIVISION   MULTINACIONALNA DIVIZIJA

      Multinacionalna divizija centar (Multinational Division Central MND (C) je bila prva prava multinacionalna divizija NATO-a, nastala da bi odgovorila izazovima Hladnog rata i činili su je pripadnici iz četiri zemlje: Belgije, Nizozemske, Njemačke i Ujedinjenog Kraljevstva. Štab im je bio u britanskoj vojnoj bazi u Njemačkoj JHQ Rheindahlen pored Mönchengladbacha. Operativni su postali 1994. godine i za punu bi mobilizaciju zemlje pripadnice osigurale po jednu padobransku ili zračno desantnu brigadu sa svim pratećim jedinicama (jedinicama borbene podrške i logistikom). Sa svojih 20.000 pripadnika bili su tada najznačajnija višenacionalna jedinica NATO-a za raspoređivanje širom svijeta. Kako se NATO sve više okretao prema drugimmsnagama za brzo djelovanje (takozvane „Visoko spremne snage“) štab i divizija su raspušteni 25. 10. 2002. godine.

      The Multinational Division Central MND (C), was a multi-national division in NATO for Central Europe and had its headquarters at the British base in JHQ Rheindahlen near Mönchengladbach. The concept for this first genuine multi-national division in NATO with its four participating nations - Belgium, Germany, the United Kingdom and the Netherlands originated during the Cold War. The airmobile MND (C) was to support Norther Army Group Central Europe (NORTHAG) as a reserve formation. The MND (C) achieved operational readiness on 1 April 1994. On the full activation of the division each nation was to make available a parachute or airmobile brigade, combat support units and supply units.

      MND-C, with a theoretical strength of 20,000 soldiers, was the most important of the multi-national rapid reaction forces stationed in Europe and had the capability of deploying on worldwide military intervention missions. Because NATO became increasingly focussed on other crisis reaction forces (the so-called High Readiness Forces (Land)), the headquarters of MND (C) was disbanded on 25 October 2002.

OPERATION ALLIED FORCE   OPERACIJA SAVEZNIČKA SILA

      NATO-vo bombardiranje Savezne Republike Jugoslavije (Operation Allied Force; Operacija Saveznička sila) trajalo je od 24.03. do 01.06. 1999. godine. NATO je 24.03.1999. godine u 20 sati počeo zračne napade na vojne ciljeve u SRJ da bi se kasnije udari proširili i na gospodarske i civilne objekte. U napadima koji su bez prekida trajali 78 dana teško su oštećeni infrastruktura, gospodarski objekti, škole, zdravstvene ustanove, medijske kuće, spomenici kulture, crkve i manastiri. Ekonomski stručnjaci iz Grupe-17 procjenili su štetu na oko 30 milijardi dolara. Konačan broj žrtava službeno nije objavljen, a procjene se kreću između 1200 i 2500 poginulih i oko 5000 ranjenih. Napadi su završeni 10. 06. 1999., nakon potpisivanja vojno-tehničkog sporazuma o povlačenju jugoslavenske vojske i policije sa Kosova i Metohije. Intervencijom NATO snaga, Vojska Jugoslavije se povukla sa Kosova i Metohije, iako je ono ostalo dijelom Srbije. Međutim, 10 godina kasnije, Kosovo je proglasilo neovisnost što je i dalje predmetom raznih kontroverzi.

      The NATO bombing of Yugoslavia was the NATO's military operation against the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. The air strikes lasted from March 24, 1999 to June 10, 1999. The bombings continued until an agreement was reached that led to the withdrawal of Yugoslav armed forces from Kosovo. The Yugoslavs' narrative was that NATO's campaign was an illegal war of aggression as it did not have the UN Security Council's endorsement. The bombing killed about 1,000 members of the Yugoslav security forces in addition to between 1489 and 1528 civilians. It destroyed bridges, industrial plants, public buildings, factories, private businesses, power plants, water-processing plants. In the days after the Yugoslav army withdrew, over 164,000 Serbs and 24,000 Roma left Kosovo and many of the remaining non-Albanian civilians (as well as Albanians perceived as collaborators) were victims of abuse which included beatings, abductions, and murders. After 10 years Kosovo proclaim independance and still waitting to be fully recognize.  Less than 100 UN members recognize new state.

      Operacija "Naslijeđena odlučnost" (Inherent Resolve OIR) naziv je američke vojne operacije za međunarodnu vojnu intervenciju protiv ISIL-a, uključujući kampanje u Iraku i Siriji, s usko povezanom kampanjom u Libiji. Do 18. 09. 2018., III oklopni korpus američke vojske bio je odgovoran za kombiniranu zajedničku operativnu grupu - Operaciju Inherent Resolve (CJTF—OIR) i zamijenio ih je XVIII zračno-desantni korpus. Kampanju prvenstveno vode američke zračne snage kao potporu lokalnim saveznicima, među kojima su najistaknutije Iračke snage sigurnosti i Sirijske demokratske snage (SDF). Borbene kopnene jedinice, uglavnom specijalne snage i artiljerija, također su raspoređene, posebice u Iraku. Od zračnih napada, 75-80% izvela je vojska Sjedinjenih Država, a ostalih 20-25% Ujedinjeno Kraljevstvo, Francuska, Turska, Kanada, Nizozemska, Danska, Belgija, Saudijska Arabija, Ujedinjeni Arapi Emirati, Australiju i Jordan.

      Operation Inherent Resolve (OIR) is the U.S. military operation name for the International military intervention against ISIL, including campaigns in Iraq and Syria, with a closely-related campaign in Lybia. Through 18 September 2018, the U.S. Army's III Armored Corps was responsible for Combined Joint Task Force - Operation Inherent Resolve (CJTF—OIR) and were replaced by the XVIII Airborne Corps. The campaign is primarily waged by American air forces in support of local allies, most prominently the Iragi security forces and Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF). Combat ground troops, mostly special forces and artillery, have also been deployed, especially in Iraq. Of the airstrikes, 75–80% have been conducted by the military of the United States, with the other 20–25% by the United Kingdom, France, Turkey, Canada, the Netherlands, Denmark, Belgium, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Australia and Jordan.

      Na izvezenoj oznaci okruglog oblika promjera 3 inča (7,62 cm) nalaze se zeleni palmin vijenac i dvije dijagonalno ukrštene sablje s bijelim oštricama i zlatnim drškama i štitnicima koji sa vrhovima prema gore nadvisuju podnožje palminog vijenca. Između oštrica su tri žute petokrake zvijezde i sve je okružene tamnoplavim rubom od 1/8 inča (0,32 cm). Palmin vijenac je simbol časti; sablje ukazuju na dvostruku prirodu koalicije - poraz ISIL-a i obnovu stabilnosti na tom području. Tri zvjezdice označavaju zapovijed i zlatno su obojene zbog izvrsnosti. Plava boja označava kopnene, morske i zračne komponente vojske. Moto misije je: Jedna misija, mnogi narodi.

      On a buff circular shaped embroidered item 3 inches (7.62 cm) in diameter, a green palm wreath with the yellow hand guards and pommels of two diagonally crossed scimitars surmounting the base of the palm wreath with white blades, points up, between the blades three yellow five pointed stars, all encircled by a dark blue 1/8 inch (.32 cm) border.  The palm wreath is a symbol of honor; the scimitars indicate the dual nature of the coalition-the defeat of ISIL and the restoration of stability to the area.  The three stars indicate the command and are colored gold for excellence.  Buff and flag blue denote the land, sea and air components of the military. Motto of the mission is: One Mission, Many Nations.
