¶1. (SBU) Embassy Kinshasa delivered talking points
regarding anti-Israeli bias in UNGA resolutions.
¶2. (SBU) Minister Plenipotentiary Alice Bamba Kipembe,
Deputy Director for International Organizations at the DRC
Minister of Foreign Affairs, said the DRC had previously
abstained on this issue instead of voting "no" because the
Congolese had seen progress in the Middle East political
situation. She said they would consider current conditions
before making a decision on this vote.
¶3. (SBU) We will follow up with the Ministry and report any
future response or change in position.
