German Defence Minister Boris Pistorius said involving the German Armed Forces, or Bundeswehr, in protecting Israel from a potential large-scale Iranian attack was not up for discussion, APA reports citing Aachener Zeitung.
Pistorius' comments came in response to a question about whether Germany, like the United States or other partners, might join an operation to protect Israel.
Any involvement of German soldiers, "which is completely inconceivable to [Pistorius] at the moment," would also require a mandate from the Bundestag, or parliament, he said. "Therefore, the question does not arise at all at the moment," he added.
