Internal troops, sometimes alternatively translated as interior troops or interior ministry forces, are a type of military and gendarmerie-like law enforcement services in the post-Soviet states and former Soviet-aligned states. Internal troops are subordinated to the interior ministry (or interior minister) rather than the ministry of defence (or defence minister) and are responsible for internal security.
