Japanese troops will conduct training for security maintenance during multinational peacekeeping exercises in Mongolia starting from June 14th. The training in Mongolia will be the Ground Self-Defense Force’s (GSDF) first duty abroad. About 40 GSDF members from the Ground Component Command responsible for directing overseas deployments and other duties will take part in the Mongolian peacekeeping exercises. The troops will practice protecting a United Nations facility and how to react to an advancing crowd, among other duties. The SDF is not currently participating in any peacekeeping missions, but one senior GSDF officer told the Mainichi Shimbun, "We are joining the (Mongolian) exercises from the perspective of accumulating knowhow for the future."
