Visit to Estonia
Szöveg: Lt. István Viktor Kapás | 2017. május 27. 6:00In order to fulfill an offer made by the Visegrád Four (V4) countries, a designated subunit of the infantry brigade from Tata, Hungary will soon participate in a three-month combined training with Estonian troops, and also with US, British and French troops stationed in Estonia on a rotational basis as part of NATO’s enhanced Forward Presence.
In preparation for the deployment, at the invitation of Estonian Deputy Chief of Defence Brig.-Gen. Indrek Sirel, a delegation from the brigade recently attended the Distinguished Visitors’ Day of the annually held Estonian exercise KEVADTORM-17 (Spring Storm 17).
Led by the brigade commander, the delegation held successful discussions with the hosts as well as with the leaders of neighboring Latvia and the allied forces stationed at the venue of the exercise. Besides, they exchanged useful information with the commanders of the Finnish and German forces deployed in the region.
The visit was greatly helped by our Warsaw military attaché delegated to Estonia, and the foreign affairs staff of the office of the Hungarian Embassy in Tallinn. Our northern allies look forward to the cooperation with the Hungarian soldiers.
