Germany opposes deployment of NATO's reaction force in S. Lebanon

Germany was opposed to deploying NATO's reaction force as peacekeepers in
south Lebanon, a government spokesman said on Wednesday.
Germany has ruled out using the NATO Response Force in south Lebanon, as
Berlin sees such a force as "totally unsuited to the task," said government
spokesman Thomas Steg, quoted by German news agency DPA.
Steg's remarks came as foreign ministers met in Rome to discuss how to end
hostilities between Israel and Hezbollah guerrillas in south Lebanon and the
possibility of deploying an international peacekeeping force there.
