Instructors from the Danish Home Guard trained soldiers of the Moldovan army in September and October 2026. According to the Home Guard, the most recent team ran courses for instructors and shooting instructors.
The aim is to build Moldova’s own pool of instructors so it can improve its training over time. The courses focus heavily on modern teaching methods. The Home Guard has sent instructor teams to Moldova several times since the cooperation began.
Denmark started the defence cooperation with Moldova in 2025. According to Danish Defence, the programme has DKK 50 million from the Peace and Stabilisation Fund and runs until 2028. Training is delivered by mobile teams in Moldova and through courses in Denmark. It supports Moldova’s move to Western military doctrines.
The Army Command, Special Operations Command and Royal Danish Defence College also send personnel to train Moldovan forces.
