CONSIDERATIONS REGARDING THE OPERATION CONCLUSION, FORCES DISENGAGEMENT AND EXTRACTION

Summary/Abstract: The end of the operation coincides with the moment when the transfer of all responsibilities to local administration bodies or other structures that have replaced them in the theatre of operation takes place and is followed by the military troops and equipment extraction/redeployment/repatriation operation. In this respect, in the authors’ opinion, at strategic level, the operation is completed when the goals are reached or, sometimes, when the action of the military forces is not needed anymore. The decision in this respect is made by the same bodies that decided to launch it (NATO, the UN or OSCE). At operational level, the operation can be ended when there are required the reorganisation of the Multinational Forces or the repatriation of national contingents and, at tactical level, when the respective structure has completed the rotation cycle in the theatre of operations or is assigned a new mission, with a different characteristic.
