about my self_2

My name’s Jorge Gal`Lino. I’m coming from Peru, South America. My background is as follows: I’m an officer in The Peruvian Air force, my rank is Lieutenant Colonel. I joined the Air force in 1990 then I graduated in 1994 as a pilot. I flew Cessna T-41D (used by the United States Air Force and the United States Army as a pilot training aircraft) them I flew Tucano T-27 (a two seat turboprop basic trainer developed in Brazil) and then I changed my career and became specialist in Photographic Engineering which means I’m trained in air photography, land management, cartography, photointerpretation, geo-information, remote sensors, geographical information system, Image intelligence etc. I studied Geographical engineering at a University in Peru and took some courses in France, and also received training from Israel and United State Armies. I was stationed in different places and units in my country. I also flew Canberra (a British light bomber) as a navigator between 1997 and 2003. During these last years, I flew Fairchild C-26B operating an aerial camera. For many years, I’ve worked in intelligence: in open source intelligence (OSIN) and psychological operations. (PSYCO).

I’m thirty eight years old, I have a son, his name is Gianfranco, he is 7 years old. He’s handsome and smart. I have a brother and a sister both married. We live in Lima, the capital of my country, in San Borja that is a beautiful suburb, very quiet with a lot of parks and the sea is 30 minutes from my house, for me is a beautiful place to live with my family.

I’m Alianza Lima Fan. It’s the most important football team in my country. I like to eat sea food and Peruvian Food. I like to play football. I love to go out with my friends and also travel. I hate the abuse of power.

I’m here because I’m very interesting in helping people, now I’m an ambassador for the UN and also representing my country so I hope to do my best.

Can the UN Keep the Peace?

The BIR travels to the Democratic Republic of the Congo to examine the United Nations' biggest peacekeeping operation in the world, MONUC.

MONUSCO Mandate

Unanimously adopting resolution 1925 (2010) under Chapter VII of the United Nations Charter, the Security Council decided that MONUSCO would be deployed until 30 June 2011, authorizing it to concentrate its military forces in eastern DRC while keeping a reserve force capable of redeploying rapidly elsewhere.

The Council decided that MONUSCO would comprise, in addition to the appropriate civilian, judiciary and correction components, a maximum of 19,815 military personnel, 760 military observers, 391 police personnel and 1,050 members of formed police units. Future reconfigurations of MONUSCO would be determined as the situation evolved on the ground, including: the completion of ongoing military operations in North and South Kivu as well as Orientale provinces; improved Government capacity to protect the population effectively; and the consolidation of State authority throughout the territory.

Emphasizing that the protection of civilians must be given priority, the Council authorized MONUSCO to use all necessary means to carry out its protection mandate, including the effective protection of civilians, humanitarian personnel and human rights defenders under imminent threat of physical violence, as well as the protection of United Nations personnel, facilities, installations and equipment. The Mission would also support Government efforts to fight impunity and ensure the protection of civilians from violations of international human rights and humanitarian law, including all forms of sexual and gender-based violence.

In the area of stabilization and peace consolidation in the DRC, MONUC would, among other things, assist the Government, along with international and bilateral partners, in strengthening its military capacity, including military justice and military police; support the reform of the police; develop and implement a multi-year joint United Nations justice support programme in order to develop the criminal justice chain, the police, the judiciary and prisons in conflict-affected areas and a strategic programmatic support at the central level in Kinshasa; support the Congolese Government in consolidating State authority in the territory freed from armed groups.

The Council further mandated MONUSCO to monitor implementation of the arms embargo imposed under resolution 1896 (2009), and to seize or collect any arms or related materiel whose presence in the country was in violation of the ban.

The Council also mandated MONUSCO to provide technical and logistical support for the organization of national and local elections, upon explicit request from the Congolese authorities and within the limits of its capacities and resources.

For more on the mandate of MONUSCO, see Security Council resolution 1925 (2010).
