SUBJECT:   CNDP REACTS TO GROUP OF EXPERTS REPORT 
 
1.  CNDP spokesman Bertrand Bisimwa mass mailed a press statement as 
an attachment to an e-mail dated December 14, 2008 with his 
organization's reaction to the recently-released report by the UN 
Group of Experts on alleged GOR and GDRC collaboration with armed 
groups in North Kivu.  Unofficial embassy translation follows. 
Original French is at para. 3.

Press Statement 
 
The Movement's political directorate hereby communicates the 
following for both national and international public opinion: 
 
-- 1.  During these last 48 hours the press has carried stories on a 
report supposedly undertaken by a group of experts mandated by the 
UN to examine events in the east of the DRC and which incriminates, 
among others, the CNDP.  The senior officials of the CNDP learned 
with great astonishment, but also with great indignation, of the 
fabrications contained in the report, particularly when it deals 
with the collusion between CNDP and the Government of Rwanda, and 
also regarding its involvement in the illegal exploitation of the 
DRC's mineral resources. 
 
-- 2.  The CNDP reaffirms publicly that it does not owe its birth 
and current operational capacities to anyone other than itself, to 
its members, to its sympathizers, and very paradoxically, to Joseph 
Kabila in person.  The supreme commander of the FARDC is, in effect, 
the great supplier of arms and supplies since the aborted process of 
"Mixage", at the beginning of 2007 until today.  His calamitous 
governance has furnished us with the essential reasons for the 
legitimacy of our struggle. 
 
-- 3.  Regarding Rwanda, the CNDP remains grateful to its 
authorities who have given asylum on their soil to almost all our 
Congolese Tutsi compatriots, whether they be refugees in camps run 
by the UNHCR or simply en exile in the country of a thousand hills, 
in the hope of returning to their native North Kivu.  It would be 
absurd to attribute to the Government of Rwanda the initiative that 
young people return regularly to their homes in the Congo, attracted 
by their irrepressible desire to help one day with the return of 
their parents to the family home.  The Government of Rwanda, at any 
rate, is unable to prevent this movement, except to make its country 
a cage from which no one can escape.  Michel JOBERT (may his soul 
rest in peace), the French minister of Foreign Affairs under 
Pompidou, replied to journalists who were surprised by France's 
"understanding" of Palestinians who wanted to return to Palestine at 
all costs:  "Trying to set foot again in one's homeland, is this 
necessarily aggression?"  In this case, the answer is in the 
question. 
 
-- 4.  Regarding the illegal exploitation of mineral resources, the 
CNDP observes that only two mines are found in the territory under 
its control:  BIBATAMA, which the Group of Experts says it (the 
CNDP) exploits, but which in fact has been granted to a well-known 
Tutsi.  He exploits this site on the basis of a grant given to him 
by the Government in Kinshasa but, moreover, this has to do with a 
senator who has been totally bought by President KABILA and who has 
no ties to the CNDP.  The other industrial unit, SOMIKIVU, which 
produces pyro-chlorine, belongs to a German group.  Since it shut 
down in 1996 it reopened only briefly in 2004 and, since that time 
has not been in operation. 
 
-- 5.  The CNDP, therefore, categorically rejects that in the report 
of UN experts which concerns it, who have emphasized more 
salesmanship than professional research.  These are purely political 
motivations which, on the one hand, try to implicate Rwanda in order 
to dishearten that country in the pursuit of its legitimate 
pretensions to see the FDLR perpetrators of genocide definitively 
neutralized and, on the other hand, to hide the defeat of the 
leadership of Joseph KABILA, whose removal from office is a task 
which the CNDP has given itself and which is just as legitimate.

COMMUNIQUE DE PRESSE 
 
LA DIRECTION POLITIQUE DU MOUVEMENT COMMUNIQUE CE QUI SUIT A 
L'INTENTION DE L'OPINION TANT NATIONALE QU'INTERNATIONALE : 
 
-- 1.  LA PRESSE A FAIT ETAT,  CES DERNIERES 48 HEURES, D'UN RAPPORT 
 
KINSHASA 00001106  002 OF 002 
 
 
QU'AURAIT COMMIS UN GROUPE D'EXPERTS MANDATES PAR L'ONU POUR 
ENQUETER A L'EST DE LA RDC ET QUI INCRIMINE, ENTRE AUTRES, LE CNDP. 
LES AUTORITES SUPERIEURES DU CNDP ONT APPRIS AVEC LE PLUS GRAND 
ETONNEMENT, MAIS AUSSI AVEC LA PLUS GRANDE INDIGNATION LES 
AFFABULATIONS QUE CONTIENDRAIT CE RAPPORT, NOTAMMENT QUAND IL FAIT 
ETAT DE LA COLLUSION DU CNDP AVEC LE GOUVERNEMENT DU RWANDA, MAIS 
AUSSI DE SON IMPLICATION DANS  L'EXPLOITATION ILLEGALE DES 
RESSOURCES MINIERES DE LA RDC. 
 
-- 2.  LE CNDP REAFFIRME PUBLIQUEMENT QU'IL NE DOIT SA NAISSANCE ET 
SES CAPACITES OPERATIONNELLES ACTUELLES QU'A LUI-MEME, A SES 
MILITANTS, A SES SYMPATHISANTS ET, TRES PARADOXALEMENT, A JOSEPH 
KABILA EN PERSONNE. LE COMMANDANT SUPREME DES FARDC EST, EN EFFET, 
NOTRE PLUS GRAND POURVOYEUR D'ARMES ET DE MUNITIONS DEPUIS LE 
PROCESSUS AVORTE DU " MIXAGE ", DEBUT 2007, A CE JOUR. SA 
GOUVERNANCE CALAMITEUSE NOUS FOURNIT LES RAISONS ESSENTIELLES DE LA 
LEGITIMITE DE NOTRE LUTTE. 
 
-- 3.  QUANT AU RWANDA, LE CNDP RESTE TRES RECONNAISSANT A SES 
AUTORITES QUI HEBERGENT SUR LEUR SOL LA QUASI-TOTALITE DE NOS 
COMPATRIOTES TUTSI CONGOLAIS, QU'ILS SOIENT REFUGIES DANS LES CAMPS 
GERES PAR LE HCR OU TOUT SIMPLEMENT EN EXIL AU PAYS DES MILLES 
COLLINES, DANS L'ATTENTE DE RETROUVER LEUR NORD-KIVU NATAL. ALORS, 
SI REGULIEREMENT DES JEUNES GENS RENTRENT CHEZ EUX AU CONGO, ATTIRES 
PAR LE DESIR IRREPRESSIBLE D'ETRE EN SITUATION DE FAIRE REVENIR UN 
JOUR LEURS PARENTS AU BERCAIL, IL SERAIT ABSURDE D'EN ATTRIBUER 
L'INITIATIVE AU GOUVERNEMENT DU RWANDA QUI, DE TOUTE MANIERE, N'A 
PAS LES MOYENS D'EMPECHER CE MOUVEMENT, SAUF A FAIRE DE SON PAYS UNE 
CAGE DONT PERSONNE NE S'ECHAPPE. MICHEL JOBERT -PAIX A SON AME- 
MINISTRE FRANGAIS DES AFFAIRES ETRANGERES SOUS POMPIDOU, RETORQUAIT 
UN JOUR A DES JOURNALISTES QUI S'ETONNAIENT DE LA " COMPREHENSION " 
DE LA FRANCE A L'EGARD DES PALESTINIENS QUI VOULAIENT A TOUT PRIX 
RENTRER EN PALESTINE : " TENTER DE REMETTRE LES PIEDS CHEZ SOI, 
EST-CE FORCEMENT UNE AGRESSION " ? EN L'OCCURRENCE, LA REPONSE EST 
DANS LA QUESTION. 
 
-- 4.  QUANT A L'EXPLOITATION ILLEGALE DES RESSOURCES MINIERES, LE 
CNDP OBSERVE QUE SEULES DEUX MINES SE TROUVENT DANS LE TERRITOIRE 
SOUS SON CONTROLE : CELLE DE BIBATAMA DONT LE GROUPE D'EXPERTS LUI 
ATTRIBUE L'EXPLOITATION, MAIS QUI EST, EN FAIT, CONCEDEE A UN 
NOTABLE TUTSI. CELUI-CI L'EXPLOITE SUR BASE DES TITRES ACCORDES PAR 
LE GOUVERNEMENT DE KINSHASA, MAIS EN PLUS IL S'AGIT D'UN SENATEUR 
TOTALEMENT ACQUIS AU PRESIDENT KABILA ET SANS AUCUNE ATTACHE AVEC LE 
CNDP. L'AUTRE UNITE INDUSTRIELLE, LA SOMIKIVU QUI PRODUIT DU 
PYROCHLORE APPARTIENT A UN GROUPE ALLEMAND. A L'ARRET DEPUIS 1996, 
ELLE N'A REDEMARRE BRIEVEMENT QUE  PENDANT QUELQUES MOIS EN 2004 ET, 
DEPUIS, ELLE NE FONCTIONNE PLUS. 
 
-- 5.  EN CONSEQUENCE, LE CNDP REJETTE CATEGORIQUEMENT, EN CE QUI LE 
CONCERNE, LE RAPPORT DES EXPERTS ONUSIENS QUI RELEVE PLUS DU 
COLPORTAGE QUE DE L'INVESTIGATION PROFESSIONNELLE. IL A DES 
MOTIVATIONS PUREMENT POLITIQUES QUI, D'UNE PART, TIENNENT A 
IMPLIQUER LE RWANDA POUR DEFORCER SES PRETENTIONS LEGITIMES A VOIR 
NEUTRALISES DEFINITIVEMENT LES GENOCIDAIRES FDLR ET D'AUTRE PART A 
OCCULTER LA DEROUTE DU LEADERSHIP DE JOSEPH KABILA QUE LE CNDP S'EST 
DONNE POUR TACHE TOUT AUSSI LEGITIME D'EVINCER.
