The Belgian government will contribute troops to the expanded U.N. peacekeeping force in Lebanon, a government official said Friday. The formal announcement is expected later Friday, but a government official said there was «a political agreement» to move ahead. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the subject. «There is a decision. It just needs to be formalized,» he was quoted as saying by the Associated Press. The number of troops has not yet been announced.
