- the report is good, m...Well, ok so here it again:<br />- the report is good, more or less like the last year's one, I think that some issues, anyway, desserves more attention like:<br />- South Kivu in my opinion now is 1000 thosand times more problematic than NK. This alliance FRF-FDLR-FNL-MM with the CNDP in contact with each of them could be explosive! Walikale/mining is something really known even if the experts really showed connections and involments and that what the SC was maybe looking for, in fact it is their mandate.<br />- Weapons trafficking around Tanzania-Burundi-Uvira/Fizi territories desserves deeper investigation. There are rumors since months in the region. Is "Protection Shiled" launched because of that or because of the work of experts? In any case finished yesterday...<br />- I'm happy that someone showed others illegal activities of armed groups that generates incomes, especially chacoal trade. If I am right you already discussed of this in one of your posts but this problem, that concerns especially CNDP, wasn't raised in last year's report.<br /><br />Yes, mainly this. What I can suggest for the next year is not only a division by sector on responsibility but also a geographical division of experts ... I mean, having two experts on weapon trafficking, one in NK and one in NK will help ... because of the time and the enormous area of intervention with frequents movements around the world doensn't help the experts. The support from Monusco is good but not enough (in days expert they have to resume thw work Monusco staff does or doesn't do in month).<br />Adding more experts will help. Look at the mapping excercise that toot months ....only for work on field ...<br />Yep, renforcing the Group in my opinion can help ...<br /><br />Could you post something also on the end of AmaniLeo? It seems that some interesting developments will come in few days ...andrea.trevisanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02265132905848357937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1209670742820403516.post-84897234860602965672010-12-01T07:49:55.264-08:002010-12-01T07:49:55.264-08:00I haven't edited anything out, so must have be...I haven't edited anything out, so must have been a glitch in the system.Jason Stearnshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11454449854081540397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1209670742820403516.post-45357078985574690522010-12-01T07:22:35.847-08:002010-12-01T07:22:35.847-08:00I've just posted a comment that disappeared?
