SUBJECT:  MINUTES OF THE AUGUST 15 MEETING OF THE JOINT MONITORING 
GROUP TASK FORCE 
 
1.  No U.S. representative attended the August 15 meeting in Goma of 
the Joint Monitoring Group Task Force.  In the interest of ensuring 
that Washington and other addressees remain informed of the Task 
Force's deliberations, post is transmitting the following official 
minutes from the meeting: 
 
SUMMARY OF MINUTES OF THE MEETING 
 
Joint Monitoring Group 
35th Meeting of the Task Force 
 
Goma, August 15, 2008 
 
 
The thirty-fifth meeting of the Task Force (TF) of the Joint 
Monitoring Group (JMG) was held in Goma on August 15, 2008, as 
scheduled.  The major highlight was a briefing from the Director of 
DDRRR Philip Lancaster on the number of combatants that surrendered 
in Kasiki on July 31, as well as detailed information on the weapons 
that were handed in. 
 
In attendance were representatives of GoDRC (Col. Augustin Mamba), 
GoRwa (Mr. Burabyo James) as well as the AU (Lt. Col. Capo Chi-chi 
Jean) UN (Mr. Archibald Moiwo), RSA (Ms. Mpho Masetlha), ICGL (Mr. 
Roger Nsibula) and EU.  The EU representative (Mr. Bernard Sexe) 
chaired the meeting. 
 
 
Summary of DDRRR briefing 
 
On August 15, 2008, DDRRR Director Philip Lancaster briefed the 
JMG-TF about the official disarmament ceremony of the first group of 
RUD combatants which took place on July 31 at Kasiki.  He clarified 
that MONUC and the GoDRC supported the activity.  He explained that 
the event was important because it signals the commencement of the 
disarmament process of the ex FAR-Interahamwe in DRC in a context 
where there were fears that RUD might not honor its commitment even 
though it had signed the road map for disarmament and relocation. 
He pointed out that a total of 64 cadres with 72 of their dependants 
surrendered with 41 weapons and 24 bullets.  The current problem in 
the Kasiki camp is that the troops have disarmed but not 
demobilized.  DDRRR has very little access to them in order to 
sensitize them for repatriation.  RUD leadership has strict control 
over the rank and file.  According to DDRRR, the RUD leadership 
needs to agree to register its cadres, as well as give access to 
DDRRR teams to sensitize them for repatriation, without which 
progress will be difficult.  The Director explained that although 41 
weapons and 24 bullets were too few, it was the beginning of a slow 
process.  On the question of repatriation statistics, the difference 
in figures between DDRRR and GoRwa was not a problem of definition, 
but identification. The procedures used to determine a combatant by 
both are different.  The GoRwa uses more skilled persons and 
techniques and the competencies of both identification teams are not 
the same.  However, the GoRwa and DDRRR have now established a 
mechanism to reconcile figures at Mutobo (in Rwanda) and the process 
is already midway.  DDRRR promised to provide the reconciliation 
figures to JMG-TF at the August 22 meeting.  Finally it was 
mentioned that there is progress in repatriation.  From November 
2007 to August 2008, a total of 823 individuals including 447 
combatants, 19 CAAGs and 357 dependents, have been repatriated to 
Rwanda.  In August 2008, 32 combatants and 50 dependents have so far 
been repatriated.  The weapons handed in by the RUD ex-combatants 
were reported to be with MONUC military in Kanyabayonga and would be 
brought to Goma in a few days from the time of this report.  The 
process of destruction will take place thereafter.  The DDRRR 
Director further revealed that there is some reluctance in some 
areas, among the local traditional chiefs to take on FDLR 
ex-combatants for relocation in their areas.  He opined that in the 
light of these difficulties, disarming the RUD combatants in their 
zone should be considered as progress, although modest, in the 
repatriation efforts. 
The Rwandese delegation expressed their concern about a DDRRR 
unofficial draft document that was inadvertently given to the 
participants, relating the Kasiki disarmament ceremony with a 
comment on a photograph saying "inter-Rwandese dialogue?"  There 
were few other inaccuracies observed in the document.  MONUC DDRRR 
regretted the circulation of this unofficial document and requested 
its immediate withdrawal.
