Soldiers from North Macedonia, the United States, the UK, Kosovo, Montenegro, Bosnia & Herzegovina, Croatia, Poland, Turkey, and Bulgaria took part in a multinational training event at Krivolak in 2015 designed to build trust between NATO partners, and assess the military capabilities of states looking to join NATO.
Overview
Krivolak occupies a large area of mostly barren landscape. Hills, valleys, and a desert are used to test the skills and endurance of soldiers that train there. The military drills that take place there often are a combination of heavy artillery firing, aerial bombardment, and infantry attack. Many objects are used to simulate real warfare conditions, including temporary buildings and structures, vehicles, and other impediments.[1] The military training area within the base is sometimes used for training of United Nations Military Observers (UNMOs).[2]
Krivolak is also the location of an annual training exercise sponsored by the Consortium for Humanitarian Service and Education (CHSE). The Consortium is a collaborative effort of academic, government, and non-governmental organizations in the United States and North Macedonia. The training includes university students from North Macedonia and the United States who are involved in organizing and conducting a humanitarian response to a simulated major earthquake.[3]
