Kabila A No Show To Consultations

The dialogue organized on June 30 by Azarias Ruberwa was eschewed by president Kabila. In addition to kabila, vice president Yerodia (part of the Kabila camp), CIAT and a number of presidential candidates did not show. In fact, the kabila government characterized the meeting as illegal and worthless. The June 30th meeting was supposed to be a follow to a process initiated by Kabila himself. However, it is now clear that Kabila only initiated the process to buy time until the official launch of the campaign.
