US embassy cable - 04KINSHASA2107

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.

 1. (C)  We read with interest reftel detailing possible food 
assistance to Colonel Jules Mutebusi and his men, who 
continue to try to portray themselves as refugees in Rwanda. 
However, given that neither Monuc nor the GOR has been able 
to verify that Mutebusi has committed himself and his men to 
non-combatant status, we agree strongly with Embassy Kigali 
that it would be a mistake to provide food (particularly in 
the sub-rosa way described reftel) to Mutebusi at this time.
