No German Soldiers in Iraq

says Chancellor Schroeder in Parliament.

And here is a short reminder: The EU, currently the world's biggest donor and paying billions for Afghanistan, said it won't pay for Iraq in February.

And that's exactly what will happen. The EU will pledge a symbolic sum of about $180 million at the donor conference in October.

Update October 4th: This eubusiness.com article says the sum will be 200 million Euro.
