Italy Puts Condition on Mideast Peacekeeping
Italy announced Tuesday it is willing to lead the U.N. contingent in southern Lebanon and could contribute as many as 3,000 troops.
Italian Prime Minister Romano Prodi stressed however that his nation will not commit troops until rules of engagement have been established and there is a clear cease-fire. Italy's government formally approved a plan Friday to send up to 3,000 troops on the peacekeeping mission.
