MPAT Workshop

Module Series

(1st Coordinating Draft 7 June 02)

Page 2: “The Basics”

Preface

This MPAT Workshop Module – Peace Operations is focused on support of the Multinational Forces Standard Operation Procedures (MNF SOP) and the Multinational Planning Augmentation Team (MPAT) Collaborative Planning Workshops.

This is a collaborative effort of the nations participating within the MPAT program. This is NOT just one nation’s doctrinal approach.

This module fully acknowledges that there is no common doctrine for Peace Operations. Further, this module is not intended to portray a single integrated doctrinal approach to Peace Operations.

•Intent of module series is to act as a basic starting point for multinational Peace Operations planning and operations.

Preface – Module 1 This Peace Operations Module is based upon:

•Multinational inputs from Multinational Planning Augmentation Team (MPAT) nations

•Multinational Force Standing Operating Procedures (MNF SOP) developed by MPAT participating nations

•Numerous doctrinal publications from United Nations documents, national multinational sources, Joint Publications series, and other key Peace Operations articles (see references section of this module)

A review of the MNF SOP (Part A & B) and of other supporting MNF Workshop Modules will assist in gaining an understanding of Peace Operations

To establish your base knowledge of Peace Operations (based upon MNF SOP) please take the Pretest before proceeding.

Key Definitions MNF: Multinational Force – Broad

Overarching Term• Describes the broader force of participating Nations’

governments, agencies, and includes the Strategic Military Planning Headquarters (HQ).

• The entire organization of nations, participating forces, and support based upon shared interests.

Two Types of MNF Operations:

•Coalition: Ad-Hoc / Crisis Based

•Combined: Alliance / Treaty Based (Example: Regional Organization - NATO)

Page 7: “The Basics”

Key Definitions(continued)

CTF: Coalition / Combined Task Force (operational level of planning and operations)

• Coalition TF (CTF): Ad-Hoc / Crisis Based

• Combined TF (CTF): Alliance / Treaty / Regional Organization Based (predetermined guidelines and / or contingency plans present)

These definitions support the MNF SOP focus upon the operational level of planning and operations (task force level).

Peace Operations

“There are no standard Peace Operations”JP 3-07.3

Elements of National & International Power will be used – not just one dimension:•Diplomatic

•Economic

•Information

•Military

•Psycho-Social

Page 9: “The Basics”

Each Peace Operation will have its own unique situational setting

•Unique political factors

•Unique diplomatic characteristics

•Unique geographical, cultural, language, and security characteristics

Peace Operations Challenges

Page 10: “The Basics”

Who Executes Peace Operations?1. United Nations (UN) – 2 Types

• UN Sanctioned/Authorized operations (Regional Organizational Led (Combined) or Multinational Led (Coalition – Lead Nation concept)

• UN Sponsored/Mandated operation (UN Chain of Command – UN led)

Note: There are significant differences in the Command Relationships, Control, and Coordination Processes for

the above PO options – see Module 4

2. Regional Organization (Combined) Led (NATO, OAU, etc.) • Non-UN Alliance / Treaty based

3. Multinational Organization (Coalition) Led• Lead Nation Concept (Non-UN)

• Multinational Crisis Action Planning Ops

• Ad-hoc based on emerging crisis / No regional framework is present to address crisis

Page 11: “The Basics”

Broad Categories of Peace Operations

Peacekeeping Operations (PKO)

Peace Enforcement Operations (PEO)Note –Terminology Differences: Many variations in terminology.1. UN commonly refers to Peace Operations as Peacekeeping and also uses the

term Peace Support Operations (PSO) at times.2. NATO uses the term PSO.3. Other nations use variations of terminology (based upon political and

operational implications / factors). 4. The MNF SOP will use the overarching term of Peace Operations with two

broad categories of operations as outlined above for clarity in mission planning.

Page 12: “The Basics”

Peacekeeping Operations (PKO)

Purpose: Designed to monitor and facilitate implementation of an agreement (cease fire, truce, and other related agreements) and support diplomatic efforts to reach a long-term political settlement.

Key Factor: Undertaken with consent of all major parties to a dispute.

Page 13: “The Basics”

PKO Example #1Title: Multinational Force and Observers in the Sinai (MFO)

Mission: A Multinational (non-UN) operation empowered by Egypt and Israel to supervise

truce provisions in the Sinai Peninsula.

Nations: Ten participating nations including US and Asia-Pacific partners, Fiji and New Zealand.

“The mission of the Sinai MFO is, very simply, to OBSERVE, VERIFY, and REPORT.” --MNF Observer Team

Years: Operation began in 1982. It is an ongoing mission.

Mission Background: The MFO is a Multinational peacekeeping mission, created as a result of the 1978 Camp David Accords and the 1979 Treaty of Peace. Since 1982, various nations have contributed military and civilian personnel to serve in Egypt’s Sinai Peninsula. The ten participating nations include Australia, Canada, Columbia, Fiji, France, Hungary, Italy, New Zealand, Uruguay, and the United States. Headquarters for the Sinai MFO mission is in Rome, Italy.

Page 15: “The Basics”

PKO Example #2Title: United Nations Mission in Ethiopia and Eritrea (UNMEE)

Mission: UN sanctioned/authorized (UN led) operation, the Organization of African Unity (OAU) is lead. Mandate requires monitoring cessation of hostilities; verifying redeployment of Ethiopian and Eritrean Forces; and monitoring a security

zone.

Nations: More than 40 including US and Bosnia-Herzegovina

Years: 31 July 2000 to Present Date

Mission Background: Fighting broke out between the two African nations in May of 1998 as a result of a border dispute. The UN Secretary General requested mediation and in July of 1999 a framework for redeployment was agreed upon.Tensions remained high and in May of 2000 hostilities resumed. Diplomatic activities intensified, and in May the OAU implemented a cease fire agreement. Two months later the Security Council established UNMEE as an official Peacekeeping mission. On 12 Dec 2000 negotiations concluded with a comprehensive Peace Agreement between Ethiopia and Eritrea. Termination of the mission is linked to the completion of the delimitation and demarcation of the Ethiopian-Eritrean border areas.

Page 16: “The Basics”

In July 2000 100 observers were assigned to the mission and up to 4,200 military personnel were authorized. The mission also introduced the use of SHIRBRIG, Stand-by High Readiness Brigade for Peacekeeping and Humanitarian Tasks. In the meantime, negotiations continued for a final and comprehensive settlement of the dispute.

UNMEE Mission Background

On the mission of UNMEE: “We have a job to do, we shall doIf effectively and efficiently, then we will withdraw.”

Peace Enforcement Operations (PEO)

Purpose: Use of necessary means up to and including military force to compel compliance with resolutions or sanctions designed to establish security, peace and order.Key Factor: Application of appropriate means, military force or clear threat of military force to compel compliance of parties involved.

Page 19: “The Basics”

Nations: UNPROFOR began with the force of 10,000 troops. With commitment of IFOR, NATO member countries sent more than 60,000 troops and civilian police to the region.

Years: Feb 1992 – 1995 UNPROFOR; 1995 - Present Date IFOR/SFOR

Mission Background: UN Security Council established UNPROFOR in the wake of the dissolution of Yugoslavia. Conflict broke out in l991 when the Yugoslav Federal Army attempted to reestablish control over Slovenia and Croatia. The UN mandate changed several times as the conflict generated humanitarian relief requirements. The Dayton Accords took effect in December of 1995 and a NATO-led Implementation Force (IFOR) moved into the region. The introduction of allied armor, attack aviation and ground combat forces backed by the will of participating nations curtailed the actions of the Serbs and other indigenous forces.

PEO Example #1 Title: UNPROFOR--United Nations Protection Force initially to Croatia then to BH IFOR—NATO led, UN Sanction force to BH, Croatia and Serbska

Mission: Initial mandate was to “create conditions of peace and security” in Slovenia and Croatia under Chapter VI. The mission was expanded to include BH and placed under Chapter VII. When that mission failed to achieve its objectives, the US sponsored a peace process that resulted in a UN sponsored NATO led Ch VII

operation to enforce provisions of Dayton Accords.

Peace Operations Activities

Peace Operations- Peace Keeping

• Operations designed to monitor and facilitate implementation of an agreement

- Peace Enforcement• Operations designed to compel compliance

with resolutions or sanctions designed to establish security, peace and order

Military Operations can support Diplomatic Efforts (three areas)- Preventive Diplomacy

• Diplomatic actions taken in advance to avert a crisis

- Peacemaking• Process of diplomacy, mediation,

negotiation, or other forms of peaceful settlement

- Peace Building • Post-conflict actions, predominately

diplomatic, economic, and security related that strengthen and rebuild governmental infrastructure and institutions

Peace Operations are normally interwoven with one another…PKO being executed with Preventive Diplomacy and Peacemaking ongoing; or PKO and PEO could be ongoing in same CTF AO (but in different regions of country).

MutuallySupportive

Page 26: “The Basics”

Legal Basis for Peace Operations

UN Charter – Resolutions/Mandates based on the UN Charter as a whole primarily Chapters VI, II, and VIII

International Treaties/Multinational Agreements/Conventions

National Constitutions/Declarations/ Resolutions/Statutory Authorizations

• VI – Pacific Settlement of Disputes – Addresses peaceful means

• VII – Action with Respect to Threats to the Peace, Breaches of Peace, and Acts of Aggression –Addresses enforcement actions

• VIII – Regional Arrangements – Regional arrangements to maintain peace & security

Page 27: “The Basics”

Doctrinal Principles of POThe following are the principles of Peace Operations:

•Freedom of Movement•Credibility•Flexibility•Use of Force•Transparency•Mutual Respect•Civil Military Cooperation

•Objectives•Security•Unity of Effort •Legitimacy•Impartiality•Consent•Perseverance•Restraint

Page 28: “The Basics”

Distinction Between PKO and PEO

Of the previously mentioned principles the three main principles are:

•Consent

•Use of Force

•Impartiality

Page 29: “The Basics”

Distinction between PKO and PEOPrincipalFactors

PKO PEO

Consent All parties consent (support PKO goals)

Partial or no consent by parties (little or no support for PEO goals)

Use of Force(restraint)

Self defense only Compel or coerce compliance with established rules of engagement

Impartiality does not denote neutrality, it is, however, a constant and may be applied as follows:

Principal Factors PKO PEO

Impartiality

Treat all sides equally and fairlyApply mandate without prejudice

When necessary, enforce the mandate on violatorsPrincipled Impartiality**

**May be considered as principled impartiality

Page 30: “The Basics”

Complex Emergencies (Contingencies)

Since 1990, Peace Operations have moved from interstate conflicts to intrastate. Complex Emergencies are now the norm• Failed states - total breakdown of government

institution & infrastructures Term used to describe Humanitarian

Operations (concurrent with PO) that have the following dimensions:• A complex, multi-party, intra-state conflict

resulting in a humanitarian disaster which might constitute multi-dimensional risks or threats to regional and international security.

• Peace Operations now must be executed along with the challenges of rebuilding societies, re-establishing institutions, promoting good governance.

- Restoring infrastructure, economy, security, and reducing human suffering.

Page 31: “The Basics”

CTF Planning Challenges for POUncertainty, ambiguity, and lack of clarity will dominate Peace Operations – transition plans will be the norm as missions shift

Inclusive and detailed civil-military planning is paramount to PO success. Military is in support of the larger political / civil mission

Peace Operations are not static…will be dynamic and ever-changing (grey areas will be present)

Example: Cease-fire present, but breaks down over time. Critical factors of consent, impartiality, and use of force are realigned. The above factors may vary within various sectors of CTF AO.

Contingency planning is an on-going process that requires full CTF Commander emphasisStresses need for continual situational assessment and planning by the Future Plans cell within the CTF Planning Process

Page 32: “The Basics”

PKO PEO

PKOPurpose: Monitor/facilitate implementation of an agreement

•Support diplomatic efforts to reach a long-term political settlement

Key Factor: Consent of parties to dispute enables PKO Force

Goal: Support implementation of mandate agreement

PEO Purpose: Use of military force to compel compliance with resolution / sanctions

Key Factor: Consent of parties to dispute is limited or nonexistent for PEO force

Goal: Restore security, peace and order

Grey Area

Factors shaping the grey area include:• Consent• Impartiality• Use of Force• Diplomatic/political variables• Humanitarian considerations• Dynamic Situation• Uncertainty

Contingency Planning is Essential to Address Grey Areas

Page 33: “The Basics”

Peace Operations Summary

Complex Emergencies (Contingencies): PKO or PEO combined with Humanitarian operations (the norm for Peace Operations after 1990)

Executed by:•UN – 2 Types (UN sponsored/mandated or UN sanctioned/authorized)

1.UN Sanctioned/Authorized

a)Regional Organization Led (Combined)

b)Multinational Led (Coalition - Lead Nation Concept)

2.UN Sponsored/Mandated (UN Led)

•Regional Organization Led (Combined – Non UN Led)

•Multinational Organization Led (Coalition – Non UN Led – Lead Nation)Legal basis – UN Charter / International Treaties, Multinational Agreements, Conventions/ National Constitutions, Declarations, Resolutions, Statutory Authorizations

Special emphasis must be placed upon Mission Analysis, Commander’s Estimate and Contingency Planning

Peace Operations Realities

Support vs. Victory: CTF Commanders and Staff are required to understand the following realities of Peace Operations• The military is always in support of the larger political / civil

mission (military is a component of a larger effort).• In Peace Ops, there is neither an enemy nor a military victory.

The military task is to set the conditions to enable other agencies to achieve the overall political end state outlined in the mandate.

• Military can:- Temporize- Maintain situation- Reduce levels of violence- Induce compliance

Page 47: “The Basics”

Peace Operations Realities(Continued)

Basic Mission: The ambit of appropriate ROE. The military mission will revolve around establishing or maintaining a safe, secure, and stable environment

Civil-Military Planning / Coordination: Identification of the civil-military tasks required by the mandate and identification of the main causes for the crisis is a critical action during the initial CTF Mission Analysis and Commander’s Estimate

21st Century Peace Operations

Operates within Complex Emergencies instead of classical Peacekeeping

Since 1990 the norm has been intrastate conflicts. Complex Emergencies are now the norm (e.g. failed states)

Peace Operations operate within a continuum of civil-military operations

Evolution of UN Peacekeeping

Ref: PKI

Second Generation - Expanded Peacekeeping that included Peace Enforcement Operations (1990-1995)

Third Generation - Expanded Peacekeeping within the limits of the UN’s ability. More complex, smaller in size and focused on Peace Building. Generally this does not include Peace Enforcement (Chapter VII) Operations (1995-1999)

Fourth Generation - Expanded Peacekeeping, but the United Nations is taking on more nation building activities. Lead Nations and Regional Organizations conducting Peace Enforcement Operations (1999-present)

First Generation - Traditional Peacekeeping (1948-1990)

Preface – Module 4 This Workshop Module is focused on the CTF Command Relationship options available for Peace Operations.

This Module also addresses a possible CTF Headquarters template to address the multinational and multifaceted challenges of Peace Operations.

This Module builds upon the MNF SOP Chapter B-3 Command / Control / Coordination Multinational Relationships and Chapter B-7 Military Operations Other Than War (MOOTW). Peace Operations Command Relationships are addressed within this Chapter in Annex A (Peace Operations). It is highly recommended that these Chapters be read prior to reviewing the Module

Review MNF SOP Proceed on with Module 4

Page 83: “The Basics”

Command and Control Command and Control of Multinational

Peace Operations are dependent upon unity of effort. This is based primarily on agreed relationships within the CTF command and CTF Headquarters.

CTF Commanders and planners need to ensure that Command Relationships and CTF HQ organization are maximized to meet the demands of the Peace Operations missions and provide for thorough civil-military planning and coordination.

Page 84: “The Basics”

Part A:

Peace Operations Command / Control / Coordination

Key Concepts and Terms

Page 85: “The Basics”

Key Concept #1

Within the CTF there are two chains of command:

1. Respective NATIONAL Chain of Command

2. CTF MULTINATIONAL Chain of Command

Page 86: “The Basics”

Operational Control (OPCON): Command authority to organize and employ forces, assign tasks, designate objectives, and give authoritive direction necessary to accomplish the mission

Command and Control Relationship Concepts

Support: Command authority for support relationships to assist in the coordination and direction of MNF logistical planning, coordination, and control / direction (types will be covered later in brief)

Tactical Control (TACON): More restrictive command authority that is limited to the detailed control of movements or maneuvers within a given operational area (AO) necessary to accomplish assigned missions or tasks.

Page 87: “The Basics”

General Support

That support which is given to the supported force as a whole rather than to particular subdivision thereof.

Mutual Support

That support which units render each other against an enemy because of their assigned tasks, their position relative to each other and to the enemy, and their

inherent capabilities

Direct Support

A mission requiring a force to support another specific force and authorizing to answer directly the supported force’s request for assistance

Close Support

That action of the supporting force against targets or objectives that are sufficiently near the supported force as to require detailed integration or

coordination of the supporting actions with the fire, movement or other actions of the supported force.

Categories of Support (A Form of Command Relationship)

Page 88: “The Basics”

Key Concept #2:MNF Command Solutions

MNF Options:

Adjust the Parameters:• Adjust the operating definitions and authorities of OPCON, TACON,

and SUPPORT.

Create New Operative Terms:• Create new terms agreeable to MNF participants to reflect the

authorities required for the situation and to address National concerns.

Modified Lead Nation Organization: (see Part B

following for example)• Modify to maintain the benefits of the lead nation organization

concept while balancing the concerns of respective Nations within the MNF effort.

Strategic and Operational Levels C2Special Note for Planners

Military Chain of Command: Note that all options outlined except for Option 5 have a clear strategic and operational military chain of command. Option 5 has no strategic military Command and Control Headquarters above the CTF level.

UN Led PO: This has significant implications for when UN Sponsored/Mandated – UN Led PO should be undertaken (see Brahimi Report on following slide)

Peace Enforcement: requires a viable and robust military organization with a strategic, operational, and tactical level of command in place for planning and execution of PEO operations (Option 1, 2, 3, or 4)

Page 97: “The Basics”

Strategic and Operational Levels C2Special Note for Planners (continued)

Brahimi Report on Peace Operations – presented to the UN SC on 21 Aug 2000 stated:• UN Peace Operations should entail three

principal activities:1. Conflict Prevention and Peacemaking2. Peacekeeping3. Peace Building

• Peace Enforcement should only be attempted by the coalition of the willing.

(Starting Point for Headquarters Organization)

Page 104: “The Basics”

Preface – Module 4 Part D

This part of the Module is focused upon the proposed starting point for the CTF HQ template within the MNF SOP.

This Module builds upon the MNF SOP Chapter B-5 CTF Headquarters Concept of Operation and Organizational Concepts.

It is highly recommended that this MNF SOP Chapter be read prior to reviewing this Module

Review MNF SOP Proceed on with this Module

Page 105: “The Basics”

CTF HQ Organizational Considerations

Peace Operations are not traditional war fighting operations • Support, not victory• Complex, ambiguous, dynamic environment• Non-traditional players

CTF HQ operational tasks for Peace Operations must be identified and planned for early in the CTF activation process

Security Council Resolution (UNSCR) Peace Agreement Mandate Status of Forces/Mission Agreement

(SOFA/SOMA) Terms of Reference Rules of Engagement (ROE) Memoranda of Understandings (MOUs) Consolidated Appeal Process (CAP)

Ref: PKI

Note: These are living documents than need continuous management

Page 109: “The Basics”

Security Council Resolution (UNSCR) United Nations Security

Council (UN SC) passes Resolutions that establishes the basis for the Peace Operation.

Peace Operations Resolutions normally contain two sections: First part contains political statements from the UN SC and the second part outlines the Mandate for the Peace Operation.

Page 110: “The Basics”

Peace Agreement CTF Planners need to

refer to any and all Peace Agreements agreed to among the parties to the conflict (past and working agreements).

Mandates for Peace Operations will normally refer to these Agreements and form a foundation for consent within the operation.

Page 111: “The Basics”

Mandate

The Mandate is the central document for outlining the scope of the operation.

The Mandate is either contained in a UN SC Resolution, an Initiating Directive from a Regional Organization or Multinational Organization, or can be included in Warning Orders and OPORDs for the operation.

Page 112: “The Basics”

Mandate Requirements It is critical that a clear end state be contained in the

Mandate

CTF Key Planning Point: The Mandate is the strategic guidance for the CTF Commander. It forms the foundation for the initial Mission Analysis and follow on Commander’s Estimate. The Mandate must be complete in its guidance and clear in its mission parameters (if not, planners must seek out additional guidance and clearly establish the mission parameters).

Also establishes the following:• ROE guidance• Legitimacy for the operation• Nature of the operation• Strategic Objectives and Political / Military end states• Strategic Mission and Tasks• Freedoms, constraints, and restraints• Expected Duration • Logistics and key supporting aspects• Civil-Military coordinating mechanisms

Page 113: “The Basics”

Status of Forces/Mission Agreement (SOFA/SOMA)

Negotiated agreements that establish the detailed legal status of PO forces – critical document.

Negotiated by the UN, Regional Organization, or Multinational Organization for the CTF at National levels (not a CTF action, but CTF planners may participate in development with higher headquarters).

Negotiated with the Host Nation and / or Affected Nation and are considered an International Agreement

Page 114: “The Basics”

Terms of Reference(TOR)

Developed to govern implementation of the PO

Based upon the situation and Mandate; may be subject to approval by the parties to the dispute (addresses details of PO)

Describes the mission, command relationships, organization, logistics, accounting procedures, coordination and liaison, and responsibilities or personnel assigned or detailed to the PO force (flexible document).

Normally written at the national level (UN, Regional or Multinational Strategic HQ) however, the potential CTF Commanders and staff may assist in initial development and need to be involved as amendments are developed

Page 115: “The Basics”

Directives that delineate the circumstances and limitations under which CTF forces respond to, initiate or continue engagement with other forces or elements

Define when and how force may be used

Initially ROE will be established by the National Strategic / UN level of planning. However, the CTF Commanders must provide continual assessments of the threat and recommendations for adjustments as required.

ROE can make the difference between success and failure • Requires ongoing

contingency planning and assessment

Rules of Engagement (ROE)

Page 116: “The Basics”

Memoranda of Understanding (MOUs)

Are used to establish agreements within the CTF forces as required

Flexible tool to establish formal

agreements as required (can supplement and / or replace TORs).

Can be used between nations or for the CTF force as a whole to establish procedures or processes.

Existing MOUs need to be identified during the CTF’s activation to determine applicability for current Mandate (can greatly assist in interoperability challenges)

Page 117: “The Basics”

CAP: Combined Appeals Process

Legal Basis• General Assembly Resolution 46/182• 1994 Inter-Agency Standing Committee approved CAP

Guidelines

Produces CHAP: Common Humanitarian Action Plan• Presentation of possible scenarios• Sectors to be addressed• Criteria for Prioritization• Relationship with other assistance programs• Statement of humanitarian principles• Long term goals

CTF Planning Process

As outlined in the MNF SOP, there are two critical areas that require clear standardization within the CTF:

• CTF Crisis Action Planning (CAP) system • CTF HQ Planning Process

This Module addresses these areas in the context of Peace Operations and stresses key planning factors

Page 120: “The Basics”

Critical CTF Planning Points(CTF Crisis Action Planning)

PO planning is no different than for any other military ops

However, two critical areas of planning must be focused early on in PO planning:

1. Strategic Level: Clear Situational Analysis and Strategic Assessments at the National / UN Strategic Levels – Clear Mandate

See following slides for above two areas of focus

2. Operational Level: Thorough CTF Mission Analysis, Course of Action Development, and Commanders Estimate

be truncated to meet political exigencies

Consider political and military guidance

• May not be timely and adequate

Based on comprehensive AO understanding

Ref: PKI

•Demographic analysis•Use of all sources: NGO/ IO •Coordinated in-country surveys

Page 127: “The Basics”

Mission Analysis Continued Focus on Consent and Legitimacy

• Will determine the nature of the operation.

• Have political, legal, social, informational and economic implications.

Ref: PKI

Page 128: “The Basics”

Consent Shapes the Operation

Not Static

Must be promoted and sustained

Affected by• Legitimacy• Credibility• Impartiality

Ref: PKI

Page 129: “The Basics”

Key Questions What are the military and civil conditions that must be attained to achieve the strategic and operational objectives?

Ref: PKI

What sequence of action on both the military and civilian side will produce these conditions?

How should the military resources be applied in concert with civil resources to accomplish that sequence of action?

Page 130: “The Basics”

Key Questions (Continued)

How best can these actions be designed to transition from military to civil authorities?

Ref: PKI

Are the associated risks acceptable?

Page 131: “The Basics”

Objectives, End States and Success

Based on mandate, agreements, and directives

Broad including military and civil goals

Military objectives and end state are supportive• Measured by benchmarks• Clearly defined set of criteria• Linked to overall political/ economic and social

end state

Ref: PKI

Page 132: “The Basics”

End-State Reality End-state vision is initially vague, short-term, &

incomplete• Positive: Allows flexibility, provides for unforeseen

circumstances and developing political and economic realities

• Negative: Complicates military operations • Challenges for CTF to identify conditions that

support a developing end-state • Affects Transition planning

Ref: PKI

Pre-engagement vision of the end-state will be modified during the peace operation. The longer the operation the greater the potential for modification.

Military hand off to civil agencies will be drawn out depending on the stability of the end state.
