Czech Republic agrees to train Indian military forces
-----------------------------------------------------
The Czech and Indian defence ministers have signed an agreement whereby
Czech military experts are to help train Indian military forces to
combat nuclear-related acts of terrorism. The agreement signed in
Prague by Czech Defence Minister Miroslav Kostelka and his Indian
counterpart George Fernandes followed an inspection of the Czech
nuclear, biological and chemical (NBC) weapons detection unit in
Liberec. The unit played a key role in protecting U.S.-led forces from
non-conventional weapons during the invasion of Iraq, and is part of
the new NATO Response Force which was formally established last week.
