Germany to send troops to Djibouti for training
Staff Reporter
3/1/2002 
Germany is due to send 600 troops to Djibouti this
month as part of a training mission. 

DJIBOUTI: The forces will be deployed under an
agreement signed between the German and Djiboutian
governments last month. 

The soldiers could be in the country for six months to
a year. 

Political analysts said the German forces could also
be used to keep a better watch on Somalia in the
context of the fight against global terrorism.
Djbouti, in the Horn of Africa, shares a border with
Somalia. 

The U.S. suspects that Somalia may be sheltering
members of Osama bin Laden's al-Qaeda terrorist
network.
