Answer:
ZIMBABWE, still bruised by its costly involvement in the Great Lakes war
between 1998 and 2002 where it sustained heavy military and financial
losses, is not sending troops to the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) this
time despite the dramatic seizure this week of the main eastern town of Goma
by rebels amid threats of an assault on the capital, Kinshasa, it emerged
yesterday.
Report by Owen Gagare
Senior government officials told the Zimbabwe Independent President Robert
Mugabe, commander-in-chief of the Zimbabwe Defence Forces (ZDF), and his
Defence minister Emmerson Mnangagwa, were reluctant to intervene in the DRC,
mainly due to Harare’s frosty relations with Kinshasa over several issues,
including a US$1 billion debt fall-out.
Repeated efforts yesterday to get comment from Mugabe’s spokesperson George
Charamba and Mnangagwa were unsuccessful.
Army spokesperson Colonel Overson Mugwisi promised to answer questions, but
did not.
Officials say there is no loveFrom Pagelost between Mugabe and his DRC
counterpart Joseph Kabila following Zimbabwe’s failed bid to secure
compensation from the DRC for losses largely sustained between 1998 and
2000.
Since 2000 Zimbabwe has been demanding about US$1 billion from the DRC for
military and consumables expenditures incurred during the war. Harare has
written to Kinshasa insisting on US$1 billion compensation but its demands
have been resisted and ignored. Zimbabwe wants to be compensated for losses
of military equipment, supplies, and monies spent on operations and
consumables.
