At the request of the United Nations, China's first team of peace-keeping police to Kosovo set out for the region Monday, said sources with China's Ministry of Public Security.
This is the second time that China has sent peace-keeping police to Europe. Earlier, China had sent peace-keeping police to Bosnia-Herzegovnia.
China currently has 22 peace-keeping policemen participating in UN's peace keeping operations in East Timor, Liberia and Afghanistan.
