German Cabinet Extends Macedonia Peacekeeping Mission

BERLIN, Mar 14, 2002 -- (dpa) Germany's cabinet
Wednesday approved extending the mandate of German
forces which head the NATO peacekeeping mission in
Macedonia, a government spokesman said.

Final approval for the three-month extension will have
to be given by parliament. The measure only won narrow
approval last September. Germany's current troop
mandate runs out on March 26.

Germany has contributed 586 troops to the 1,000-strong
NATO force in Macedonia which is protecting 284
observers keeping watch on the return of refugees to
their former homes.
