Arvustused

'United Nations peacekeepers perform multifaceted roles that are crucial in ensuring global peace and security. Indeed, the peacekeepers prevent conflict and ensure more rooms of manoeuver for diplomatic and political efforts, which signifies their great contributions to world peace and stability. In this connection, the involvement of Bangladesh Army in United Nations Peacekeeping Operations (UNPKOS) is a narrative of more than three decades. We are proud to earn the glorious top position as Troop Contributing Country (TCC). But, the journey of achieving such a noble reputation was not easy. Rather, it is the outcome of distinguished services, unwavering dedications and considerable sacrifices made by the peacekeepers who have left the warmth of their homes and families to uphold justice and order in the world's most perilous regions.This book is basically an anthology of narratives which reflects the lived experiences, enduring commitments, indomitable valour and great sacrifices made by the gallant men and women who have served under the Blue Helmet as United Nations Peacekeepers. It explores the multifaceted domain of peacekeeping from the vantage points of those who have been directly involved, especially the candid insights of the commanders offering invaluable observations on the conduct of various UNPKOS. The write-ups also serve as lenses through which the readers can comprehend the present challenges and envision the future role of the United Nations in an ever-changing global landscape. Thus, the book stands as an important record of the indomitable spirit, courage and dedication of UN peacekeepers.I convey my felicitations to the authors and editors for their exemplary scholarship and dedication in bringing this enlightening volume to life. I am sanguine that the richness contained within its pages will not only educate but also palpably inspire succeeding generations to take up the sacred mantle of peacekeeping for a more peaceful, just and harmonious world.'General Sheikh Mohammad Shafiuddin AhmedChief of Army Staff (CAS) of the Bangladesh Army
