During their recent port visit to the Seychelles, EU NAVFOR warship, ITS Espero, took the opportunity to carry out training with teams from the Seychelles Air Force and Marine Police Unit. The training included briefings on boarding a suspect vessel and helicopter operations at sea. The Seychellois teams showed great enthusiasm and appreciation for the training, which took place throughout the day.
Training such as this helps helps to strengthen mutual understanding between EU NAVFOR and regional partners. The importance of this strong partnership was highlighted by the Chief of Staff of the Seychelles Defence Forces, Colonel Michael Rosette, who expressed words of appreciation for a 'good job done' during his forces’ visit to ITS Espero.
