More than 60 years after world war two, Germany is still very sensitve how it deploys it’s troops in foreign countries. The government has announced it will extend three military deployments including its contribution to an EU naval force tracking pirates off Somalia. Germany has more than 300 troops participating in the anti-piracy force. There are 120 soldiers to Bosnia, and it’s considering sending a ship with 220 soldiers to take part in NATO’s Active Endeavour operation patrolling in the Mediterranean. Germany also has 4,900 troops in Afghanistan.
