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.
