ESTABLISHING A NEW PEACEKEEPING OPERATION IN RWANDA AND
UNDERLINED THE URGENCY OF VOTING THIS WEEK. SEVERAL
NOTED THE ENCOURAGING PRECEDENT OF BEING LOBBIED BY A
JOINT DELEGATION FROM RWANDA WHICH INCLUDED
REPRESENTATIVES OF BOTH PARTIES, WORKING WELL TOGETHER.
ACKNOWLEDGED THE DIFFICULTIES SOME
DELEGATIONS, PARTICULARLY THE U.S., HAD WITH THE TIMING,
REMARKING, HOWEVER, THAT THEY WOULD "FIND IT
UNFORTUNATE" IF DELAYS IN THE SECURITY COUNCIL WERE TO
DISRUPT THE PEACE PROCESS IN RWANDA.
4. USUN DPR AMB WALKER NOTED THAT THE FINANCIAL
ADDENDUM WAS NOT YET AVAILABLE, LEAVING THE COUNCIL WITH
NO IDEA OF WHAT THIS OPERATION MIGHT COST. FRANCE
AGREED, AND PROMISED TO PRESS THE SECRETARIAT TO PRODUCE
THE FINANCIAL ADDENDUM QUICKLY. IN RESPONSE TO
SUGGESTIONS FROM THE RWANDA JOINT DELEGATION, THE FRENCH
PROPOSED SOME AMENDMENTS TO THEIR PREVIOUS DRAFT (SEE
BELOW, PARTICULARLY NEW FOURTH PREAMBULAR PARAGRAPH, AND
NEW LANGUAGE IN OPERATIVE PARAGRAPHS 2, 2(G), 3, 4, 5, 7
AND 12). FRANCE ENDED THE DISCUSSION BY NOTING THEY
WOULD CONTINUE TO CONSULT BILATERALLY, AND THEN IN A
WORKING GROUP OF THE WHOLE, WITH A VIEW TOWARDS AGREEING
