Germany has said that it will not officially designate Hezbollah as a terrorist group, a development likely to cause tension between Berlin and Washington.
The country’s minister of state, Niels Annen, told Der Spiegel on Friday that the US-designated terrorist group plays a crucial role in Lebanon, and that the European Union already blacklists the organization’s terrorist wing, reported Reuters.
This comes two weeks after the United Kingdom officially designated Hezbollah as a terrorist group, joining 12 other countries that have a similar designation.
Previously, the United Kingdom distinguished between the Hezbollah terrorist and political facets.

If Germany designates Hezbollah as a terrorist group, how should they be labeled?
Apparently, the Nazis are still the good guys in Germany.
