United Nations Peacekeeping
The Military Liaison Group (MLG) has teams based in Dili, Baucau, Maliana, Suai, and Oecussi. In the border districts these teams liaise with the Border Police and the Indonesian Armed Forces (Tentara Nasional Indonesia or TNI) to ensure the smooth functioning of border activities, mediating where necessary. In all districts, the MLG gathers information for UNMIT on matters relating to security issues.
Closure of UNMIT
The United Nations Integrated Mission in Timor-Leste completed its mandate on 31 December 2012. Find out more about the closure in our Fact Sheet and by visiting the Momentum website which pays tribute to the Timorese achievements and marks the departure of UN peacekeepers.
