Bush Surprises With Praise of German Afghanistan Troops
dw-world.de

Germany has firm plans to expand their mandate in Afghanistan, according to a newspaper report, as U.S. President George W. Bush praised Chancellor Schröder's commitment to the region to reporters on Friday.

Towards the end of a talk with reporters at his Texas ranch on Friday afternoon, U.S. President George W. Bush unexpectedly praised Germany's troop commitment to Afghanistan and said the words no one in Berlin ever expected to hear.

"Not only is Germany's participation important, it's robust, more robust than we would have anticipated," said Bush. "I look forward to thanking Chancellor Schröder for that."
