The Voice of RPF declared that if the French soldiers could not retrieve all the threatened people from their hides in bushed and mountains, they had to leave and let the inkotanyi do it as they had bet. The journalist added that if they did not leave at time the RPF would fight them anywhere it would meet them. 2. The Paris magazine "Lettre du Continent" has issued a French plan to conquer Rwanda and Burundi thank to the help of Mobutu of Zaire. The magazine in its long article revealed during the OAU Presidential cession in Tunis, Egypt agreed with Zaire to let the latter [Zaire] follow up the help of the Rwandese Government previously ensured by Egypt. The Voice of RPF reminded that both Zaire and Egypt had been pointed at by the Front for having always supplied weapons and ammunition to the dictatorial regime of Habyalimana and to the bloody Government chaired by Kambanda. The article went on discovering that Mobutu had planned to appoint Tongo wa Ndongo as the Prime Minister (he has in fact been appointed the Prime Minister), for the latter had in turn promised to help Mobutu to build up the plan of selling Rwanda and Burundi. The magazine went on that during the ceremonies of Mandela's enthroning, the US Vice-President had advised the Rwanda neighboring Heads of States would meet in Tanzania and discuss on the Rwandese case in order to find out a long-lasting solution to the crisis. And at that time, continues the article, Mobutu and French authorities thought of a plan to sell the country. The RPF Voice journalist precised that the US VicePresident was not aware of the plot. The article affirmed that Mobutu Presidential Guards had been sent inside the country to around 80 km to help the RGF and the journalist of RPF Voice added that this was true, for even Radio Rwanda had unknowingly warned people of the North at the boarder with Zaire to be vigilant because some unknown people were seen infiltrating through the country in Zairian military uniforms. The magazine spoke of 3 military camps built in Zaire in which they have started training hutu interahamwe with the cooperation of the French soldiers. It revealed that 2 camps were set in Goma where only the interahamwe of North (abakiga) were trained and that the last one was in Bukavu where they chose to train the interahamwe of the South (abanyenduga). It explained this segregation with the fact that they feared that the interahamwe of the South would refuse to attack the country, or would join the RPF in the liberating war. The author said that a Zairian major [I did not get his name but it was given] was in charge of the training of the interahamwe and supplying ammunition of the Rwandese Presidential guards and that General Barameto, a Zairian officer was in charge of guarding the city of Gisenyi. The RPF journalist commenting on this information, advanced that the so called French intervention is nothing else than a means to start implementing France's wicked plan to �conquer Rwanda and Burundi. However, she said that French authorities had started having problems to convince the interahamwe of Bukavu- those coming from the South-to attack the country. The French authorities declared, had gone on the article, that they were disappointed with the RGF misbehavior and cowardice despite the French moral and material support. The RPF journalist estimated that the French authorities, disappointed with the RGF, had decided to train the interahamwe and chosen to set their .barracks in Goma and bukavu where they would easily train them. In the meanwhile, the Rwandese Foreign Affairs Minister has written to Mitterand begging ammunition and it was said that France has officially refused but the journalist added that all what France has been doing for the oppressors in Rwanda never appeared officially. She also indicated that the Prime Minister had not hidden his joy when the French were accepted to come to Rwanda, for he was aware of the plot. The magazine also informed that the spouse of the late President were going to leave in RSA in a "villa" that Mobutu had bought to the Presidential family. The RPF journalist criticized the declaration of the French Minister of Defence that they could not evacuate the threatened population. For her, it was better letting them in the bushes and mountains rather than showing them the interahamwe. She sustained General DALLAIRE's suggestion that the French would spend a short time in Rwanda before UNAMIR II starts its job. 3. * The Government has lost control of the situation, declared the journalist referring to a letter the Prime Minister and the President of Rwanda have written to the French President. In the letter, they declared to be concerned with the people in the RPF held zones and ask him that the French troops would be deployed in that area. It was reported that France has refused. The journalist informed that people who were in the RPF held zones had decided at will to stay and that the Government was ashamed of the failure of the propaganda it had been spreading out that the Front did not have any adherent within the country. She added that the Prime Minister was disappointed, for he had bet that the RPF would not find any living human being in the country even if it happened that it took it. � Text A resource consisting primarily of words for reading.
