German govt. extends troops' mandate in Kosovo The German press reported that Germany currently has around 1,200 soldiers in Kosovo. The press also reported that parliamentary commissioner for the German armed forces Hellmut Koenigshaushas criticized the recent deployment of troops to Kosovo, since they are overloaded. A part of the soldiers has been constantly engaged for almost a year and a half, he added. The decision on extension made by Chancellor Angela Merkel still has to be approved by Germany's lower house of parliament, the Bundestag.
