Relationships

EUTM Mali had links with EUCAP Sahel Mali, the United Nations Multidimensional Integrated Stabilization Mission in Mali and Operation Barkhane in the north of Mali, with which EUTM shared the same goal, to help Mali to free the north of its territory. Notwithstanding, EUTM Mali's mission was a mission of training and advice. After France, Germany, Belgium (in 2016), Czech Republic became in 2020 the leading nation of this mission.^{[citation needed]}
