Germany refuses to join in NATO military action

Updated on 2001-09-16 12:49:13

ISLAMABAD, Sep 16 (PNS): Following the pattern
of Norway, Germany has also declined to
participate in any direct military action launched by
North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) to
combat terrorism.

According to Voice of Germany (VOG), the country would take measures only to facilitate the
administrative work for its allies.

NATO's policy-making council invoked a Cold War-era mutual defence pledge for the first time
Wednesday, declaring that the attack on the US was an attack on all allies and could draw a
collective military response

It is pertinent to mention here that Norway has already announced its refusal to participate in
any military action launched by NATO against Afghanistan.
