SUBJECT: Etumba fleshes out government proposal for implementing 
Goma peace process 
 
Ref:  Kinshasa 162 
 
1. (SBU) Summary:  The Congolese government intends to issue a 
follow-up decree to clarify problematic elements of the "Amani" 
decree intended to implement the Goma peace process.  The 
forthcoming decree would vest decision-making power in the 
provincial military and humanitarian sub-commissions rather than the 
Kinshasa-based Technical Commissions, and would set aside the 
vice-presidencies of each for the international signatories to the 
Acte of Engagement.  The government also offered CNDP a place on the 
Steering Committee and positions on the secretariats assigned to 
support the various commissions and sub-commissions.  Lack of 
consultations between CNDP's military and political wings raised 
questions about its position on current discussions.  End summary. 
 
2. (SBU) International facilitators met with Naval Chief of Staff 
Vice-Admiral Didier Etumba at their request February 14 at MONUC's 
Goma headquarters to better understand the mechanisms being proposed 
by the government to implement the Kivus Conference Acte 
d'Engagement.  Etumba was accompanied by 8th Military Region Deputy 
Commander Colonel Delphin Kahimbi, with SRSG Chief of Staff John 
Almstrom of MONUC, Ben Shepard of the UK, Colonel Pechoux of EUSEC 
and Nick Jenks and Willet Weeks of the U.S. participating as 
facilitators. 
 
3. (SBU) Etumba confirmed that the Technical Commission, officially 
known as the Mixed Technical Commission for Peace and Security, will 
be based in Kinshasa.  However, it will include only one person 
appointed by the GDRC, so will not really, on its own, be a 
committee as such.  It will have a vice president drawn from the 
international signatories to the Acte.  Consultants can be attached 
to it. 
 
4. (SBU) The Commission's sub-commissions, namely the Mixed Military 
Sub-commission and the Mixed Humanitarian Sub-commission, are where 
the decision-making will reside.  The former will be based in Goma 
and the latter in Bukavu.  These -- not the Technical Commission -- 
are the bodies that will be "empowered with decision-making 
authority" in a decree to be issued soon. 
 
5. (SBU) Etumba said that international facilitators would have the 
vice presidencies of not only the Technical Commission, but of all 
its subsidiaries as well.  This will mean one post in Kinshasa, two 
in Goma and two in Bukavu. 
 
6. (SBU) Almstrom later reported to other international facilitators 
that Etumba had offered CNDP the position of "permanently invited 
guest" at the Steering Committee in Kinshasa during a meeting that 
morning involving Almstrom, Etumba, Kahimbi and a CNDP military 
delegation.  Etumba had also offered CNDP positions on the 
secretariats that will be attached to the Technical Commissions and 
 
SIPDIS 
its sub-commissions.  (Note:  Almstrom had not informed the rest of 
the international facilitators of this meeting in advance, nor 
invited them to participate.  End note.) 
 
7. (SBU) As the meeting with Etumba was finishing, the CNDP 
delegation, consisting of Major Seraphin Mirindi, another major and 
a captain, inexplicably joined it, much to participants' confusion. 
They allowed that they had not had a chance to talk to their 
political counterparts who had been at the meeting the day before 
(reftel), but nonetheless launched into additional concerns which 
the political delegation had not raised. 
 
8. (SBU) The first was about coordination at the provincial level, 
and the second about size or representation on the various 
commissions and sub-commissions.  They proposed that the government 
have 50 per cent and they have 50 per cent and that other armed 
groups such as Mai-Mai and PARECO be included in the government's 50 
per cent.  Both MONUC and government told CNDP to stop playing games 
and cooperate with what had been agreed to by all sides, and move 
the process forward. 
 
9. (SBU) Comment:  International facilitators had a much clearer 
idea of the government's vision following Etumba's presentation. 
However, it was very clear that the government does not want nor 
intend to revise or cancel the first decree.  It intends to use the 
"empowering" language in the following decree to be able to say to 
the CNDP:  "we heard your concerns, and have officialized them, the 
way you want, in this one," while not going down the embarrassing 
road of canceling or amending the first.  End comment.
