SUBJECT: AMANI PROGRAM WORKING GROUP ON THE EXTENSION OF STATE 
AUTHORITY MEETS IN GOMA AUGUST 9 
 
REF: KINSHASA 655 
 
1.  (SBU) Summary:  European Union (EU) political advisor Veronique 
Aulagnon provided Emboff notes from the August 9 meeting of the 
Amani Program working group on the extension of state authority in 
North and South Kivu.  Provincial government members suggested 
increasing the number and pay of magistrates to improve the rule of 
law and provision of justice, while representatives from the FRF 
("Forces republicaines federalistes" in French) criticized a murder 
investigation in South Kivu.  The working group agreed to create a 
sub group to produce a single document describing strategies and 
operations to restore state authority and address budget and 
timetable questions.  Aulagnon later met individually with CNDP 
("Congres pour la defense du peuple" in French; the 
military-political organization headed by renegade Tutsi General 
Laurent Nkunda) spokesman Renee Abandi who expressed skepticism 
towards the Amani process due to the perceived indifference of the 
GDRC to the success of the program.  End summary. 
 
2.  (SBU) The Amani program working group for the extension of state 
authority discussed the status of progress in North and South Kivu, 
the establishment of a justice task force to address gender based 
violence and property disputes, and the dissatisfaction of the armed 
group FRF with a murder investigation in Minembwe, South Kivu. 
(Note:  FRF is the self-appointed protector of the Banyamulenge 
people of the Minembwe area.  The Banyamulenges are of Tutsi origin. 
 End note.)  The meeting was held in Goma and members in attendance 
were the Ministers of Justice for North and South Kivu, the current 
FARDC commander for the 8th military district General Mayala, MONUC 
representatives, EU officers, representatives of several Mai Mai 
groups, including PARECO ("Patriotes resistants congolais" in 
French) and the FRF. 
 
3.  (SBU) The working group reviewed a North Kivu justice ministry 
report on measures to re-establish state authority.  (Note:  the 
South Kivu report will be ready August 10, according to the South 
Kivu Justice minister.  End note.)  The provincial minister proposed 
a "justice task force" to combat gender based violence and land 
ownership disputes.  He also proposed the recruitment of additional 
magistrates and the establishment of additional judicial forums.  He 
announced that the minimum salary for a magistrate will be increased 
to $500 per month.  However,the minister did not support the 
concept propose by national Interior Minster Denis Kalume at the 
August 6-7 Amani steering committee meeting (reftel) of recruiting 
police officials from outside the province.  He did, however, 
advocate for stronger penalties for officials convicted of abuse of 
office. 
 
4.  (SBU) The armed group FRF criticized the results of a South Kivu 
provincial investigation into the death of a child in Minembwe, 
noting the continued freedom of the FARDC soldiers the FRF considers 
responsible for this act.  FRF representatives also expressed the 
group's desire for representation on the provincial committee 
conducting the investigation and the mention of the absence of state 
authority as a causative factor in the murder.  (Note: Aulagnon 
assesses that the continued participation of FRF in the working 
group meetings is uncertain. End note.) 
 
5.  (SBU) The working group agreed to create a sub-group of 
provincial authorities and armed group representatives, with the 
international facilitation as an observer, to consolidate existing 
reports into one comprehensive document describing strategies and 
operations to restore state authority, address budget issues, and 
establish timetables.  The sub-group will meet August 10-11 and 
present the document to the full working group on August 12. 
 
6.  (SBU) Following the working group meeting August 9, Aulagnon 
discussed Amani program progress, CNDP absence from Amani meetings, 
and suggestions for the advancement of the program with CNDP 
spokesman Renee Abandi.  Abandi listed several reasons for CNDP 
pessimism with regards to the Amani process.  He cited a lack of 
engagement by the GDRC in Amani processes and active FARDC 
preparations for war.  He asked that the international facilitation 
affirm to Kabila that MONUC will not defend the FARDC should they 
attack the CNDP.  He also listed the DRC refusal to assign Nkunda to 
an Amani brassage committee, the lack of progress against the FDLR, 
the uncertain future of CNDP leaders in the DRC, and the absence of 
progress in the negotiation between UNHCR, GDRC and Rwanda on the 
return of refugees to the DRC as reasons for CNDP skepticism. 
 
7.  (SBU) Abandi explained his absence from the JTCPS (Joint 
Technical Commission for Peace and Security) as due to reluctance to 
be away from CNDP forces while the FARDC prepares for war.  He said 
administrative assistant Bernard Bisima would represent CNDP in the 
interim.  Abandi was open to a plenary session of the JTCPS, 
 
KINSHASA 00000664  002 OF 002 
 
 
although he said an agenda could be adopted by the commission 
without CNDP involvement.  Abandi said the establishment of 
disengagement zones occupied by MONUC would reduce clashes between 
armed groups and government forces, and would thereby decrease the 
chances of war and advance the Amani program forward. 
 
8.  (SBU) Comment:  Recent comments by the CNDP evince continuing 
distrust of the GDRC and a hesitancy to engage in the Amani process. 
 The CNDP's assertion that the FARDC is preparing for war is 
unproven and would appear to be mostly posturing at this point.  End 
comment.
