Disclaimer: This site has been first put up 15 years ago. Since then I would probably do a couple things differently, but because I've noticed this site had been linked from news outlets, PhD theses and peer rewieved papers and because I really hate the concept of "digital dark age" I've decided to put it back up. There's no chance it can produce any harm now.

(U) Poloff initially delivered reftel demarche to Ambassador Fabien Emery Zulu, Cabinet Director for FonMin Ghonda on July 7.

Shakembo said that when the Congo signed the agreement in 2002, it believed it had followed all necessary procedures, but with the inception of a transitional government and parliament, the Foreign Ministry now feels that it is necessary to submit the article 98 agreement to the National Assembly for ratification. Shakembo indicated that the Ministry soon will initiate this process. We will continue to follow up. SCOTT
