Summary

The bill allows to contribute to the training mission of the European Union (EU) in Mali with up to ten soldiers and to the peacekeeping mission of the United Nations (UN) in Mali with up to five soldiers. The purpose of EUTM Mali is to support the development of the military capability of the Malian armed forces, so that Mali is able to contribute to the defense of the country's population and territory, and to improve the security situation in Mali. In addition, the political is supported the achievement of stability and the implementation of the Algiers peace agreement, in order to enhance the restoration of state power and the rule of law across Mali. EUTM Mali supports the wider Sahel region by improving the operational capabilities of the G5 Sahel Joint Force and intensifying regional cooperation, focusing primarily on common security threats, especially terrorism and human trafficking. EUTM Mali's mandate runs until 18 May 2024, and the operational area has been extended to the whole of Mali territory to other Sahel countries, focusing primarily on Burkina Faso and Niger. MINUSMA's strategic goal is to support the implementation of the Mali Peace and Reconciliation Agreement signed in 2015. The mission's second strategic objective is to facilitate the implementation of Mali's comprehensive strategy to protect civilians, reduce intercommunal violence and restore state authority and ensure the delivery of key public services in the first place in central Mali. When implementing the mandate, MINUSMA will adapt its activities, taking into account the developments in the region and enhancing coordination with other international and regional organizations operating in the region and the G5 Sahel. The explanatory note of the bill states that the challenges of Mali are increasing stability and security throughout the country, and Estonia helps to contribute to this through participation in international training cooperation. Through it cooperation contributes to Estonia's joint fight against threats affecting Europe, including the fight against terrorism and solving migration problems.
