Miembros del Mando de Operaciones Especiales de EE. UU. llevaron a cabo un ejercicio de entrenamiento conjunto con las Fuerzas Especiales de Guinea Ecuatorial del 18 de mayo al 26 de junio en la Academia Ekuku de Bata. Este programa, desarrollado en colaboración por el Mando de Operaciones Especiales de EE. UU. para África (SOCAF) y las Fuerzas Especiales de Guinea Ecuatorial, reforzó la coordinación y la preparación de ambas fuerzas.
A lo largo del intensivo programa de entrenamiento de cinco semanas, los instructores del SOCAF de EE. UU. trabajaron en estrecha colaboración con cerca de 50 miembros de las Fuerzas Especiales de Guinea Ecuatorial, impartiendo formación especializada y entrenamiento práctico diseñado para mejorar las habilidades tácticas conjuntas, la preparación operativa y la cooperación internacional. Iniciativas de entrenamiento conjunto como esta aportan valor estratégico a la asociación entre EE. UU. y Guinea Ecuatorial en una región importante para la seguridad del Atlántico. En la ceremonia de clausura celebrada el 26 de junio, el embajador David Gilmour se dirigió a los soldados de ambas fuerzas y afirmó: «Cada uno de vosotros se ha dedicado con rigor y determinación a un programa intensivo que representa un verdadero hito: el primer curso de este tipo impartido en Guinea Ecuatorial por las Fuerzas Especiales de Estados Unidos. Este logro no solo es histórico, sino que constituye un reflejo concreto y tangible de la cooperación, el respeto mutuo y la amistad que unen a nuestras dos naciones».
