UN peacekeeping operations (catch all)

[davidbfpo]

I have always wondered whether South Korea, with its large military, was a UN troop contributor:

As of June 2016, the ROK Armed Forces had 1,108 soldiers supporting peacekeeping missions in 13 countries.

Here is the answer:http://blog.keia.org/2016/07/south-k...urrent-status/

Oddly the official ROK Foreign Affairs website states in January 2016:

...a total of 647 Korean military officers have been deployed to 6 different PKO missions.

The vast majority (officers and men) were then in South Sudan and The Lebanon
