a decision the germans will not want to participate but are they have decided that the position does not preclude them actually some supplies weapons in this case or systems some believe germany is under pressure from other nato members particularly the united states friends in the u.k. to take a more active part in the libyan campaign at first hand. you know ministries toward the foreign minister don't go into libya it's a very bad conflict it was started by the cia and it's a dirty business goal good so this is why you voted with russia and china now the backlash from washington is so tough obviously we are under pressure to do something to make up for this decision aside from peer pressure germany may be allured by the possible financial benefits of making its weapons available for natives use in libya probably germany will get paid for delivering these arms to other country. but that is normal practice between the two countries. out of the
