EU Naval Force Flagship Conducts Maritime Training with Tanzanian Navy During Port Visit to Dar Es Salaam

On the 24th of March, during their port visit to Dar Es Salaam, EU Naval Force Flagship, HNLMS Johan de Witt, conducted maritime training with a delegation from the Tanzanian Navy.

The 14 Tanzanian trainees were given a briefing on first aid, including measures to take in-case of a combat injury.

The training was well received and contributed to the growing mutual understanding between EU Naval Force and the Tanzanian Forces, who are a key regional partner in the counter-piracy effort.

On completion of the training, one of the Tanzanian trainees said: “This has been a great opportunity to build relations with the EU Naval Force.”

The Force Commander of EU Naval Force, Rear Admiral Jonas Haggren, who is embarked in HNLMS Johan de Witt said after the event: “I am very pleased that the EU Naval Force has been able to deliver some valuable training to the members of the Tanzanian military. Tanzania is a key regional partner and we are always keen to enhance our cooperation, working together against piracy in the region.”
