-The Norwegian Government wants to contribute to UN peacekeeping operations, and I am proud of the fact that a Norwegian officer has been asked to lead the UN operation in Cyprus, says Norwegian Minister of Defence Ine Eriksen Søreide.
Norge ønsker å bidra til FNs fredsbevarende operasjoner, og jeg er stolt over at en norsk offiser skal lede FN-styrken på Kypros videre, sier forsvarsminister Ine Eriksen Søreide.
No previous UN operation has had a female force commander.
Ingen tidligere FN-operasjoner har hatt en kvinnelig styrkesjef.
UN Security Council Resolution 1325 on Women, Peace and Security emphasizes the need for increased female participation in international operations.
FNs sikkerhetsrådsresolusjon 1325 om kvinner, fred og sikkerhet legger vekt på behovet for økt kvinnelig deltagelse i internasjonale operasjoner.
-Major General Lund is first and foremost an able and experienced officer.
-Kristin Lund er først og fremst en dyktig og erfaren offiser.
That Major General Lund will be a force commander is therefore an important signal and a milestone for UN peacekeeping operations, said the Minister of Defence.
At generalmajor Kristin Lund blir styrkesjef er et viktig signal og en milepæl for FNs fredsbevarende operasjoner, sier forsvarsministeren.
Examples of such positions include Norway's chief of staff positions with the United Nations Mission in South Sudan (UNMISS) (in rotation with the United Kingdom) and the UN observer mission in the Middle East (UNTSO).
Blant annet har Norge stabssjefsstillingen i FN-operasjonen i Sør-Sudan (UNMISS) på rotasjon med Storbritannia og stabssjefsstillingen i FNs observatørmisjon i Midtøsten (UNTSO).
In addition Major General Robert Mood served as head of the UN mission in Syria (UNSMIS) in 2012.
I tillegg tjenestegjorde generalmajor Robert Mood som sjef for FNs misjon i Syria (UNSMIS) i 2012.
Norway currently also contributes a military vessel to the UN/OPCW-operation to extract chemical weapons from Syria.
Norge stiller nå med et militært fartøy i FN/OPWC operasjonen for å hente ut kjemivåpen fra Syria.
The mandate of the mission was later expanded to include monitoring of the 1974 ceasefire, and to form a buffer zone between the two warring parties.
Mandatet ble senere utvidet til å omfatte overvåkning av våpenhvilen i 1974, samt utgjøre en buffersone mellom de to stridene parter.
The mandate of UNFICYP has been regularly renewed in the absence of a political solution to the conflict.
Mandatet til UNFICYP har blitt regelmessig fornyet i fravær av en politisk løsning på konflikten.
UNFYCIP currently consists of about 900 uniformed personnel and is headed by a U.S. Special Representative (SRSG) and a Chinese force commander.
UNFYCIP består i dag av om lag 900 uniformert personell, og ledes av en amerikansk spesialrepresentant (SRSG) og en kinesisk styrkesjef.
Currently 13 countries contribute military personnel to the mission, with Argentina, Britain, Slovakia, Hungary and Serbia as the largest contributors.
13 land bidrar med militært personell, der henholdsvis Argentina, Storbritannia, Slovakia, Ungarn og Serbia er de største bidragsyterne.
