Schroeder: Europe Opposes War Beyond Afghanistan November 16, 2001 11:48 AM ET Email this article Printer friendly version BERLIN (Reuters) - Several European Union states oppose widening the U.S.-led war on terrorism beyond Afghanistan, German Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder said on Friday. "Britain, France, Germany and others agree with each other that this would be wrong to do," Schroeder told ZDF television when asked about the possibility of widening the war. Some members of the U.S. administration have hinted that the war on terrorism could extend beyond Afghanistan. One possible target could be Iraq, amid clues of contacts Baghdad had with the leader of the Sept. 11 attack on the World Trade Center. Schroeder said there were no signs that the United States had plans to widen the war. The German leader spoke on a day that his government narrowly survived a parliamentary confidence vote over the issue of mobilizing troops to Afghanistan.
