2. BOOH BOOH HAS BEEN SUPERB HERE BOTH IN HIS
PRIVATE DIPLOMACY AND IN HIS PUBLIC STATEMENTS. THE
WESTERN OBSERVERS HAVE BEEN CAREFUL TO KEEP BOOH BOOH
OUT FRONT AND DUCK RWANDAN ATTEMPTS TO DISSIPATE
DIPLOMATIC PRESSURE BY DIVIDING RANKS. WE CONSULT
REGULARLY WITH BOOH BOOH AND TANZANIAN FACILITATOR

TAMBWE. MOST RECENTLY, ON OUR TRIP TO MULINDI, BOOH
BOOH'S POLITICAL ADVISER FOR INTERNAL AFFAIRS, A KEY
STAFFER, WENT ALONG AT MY INSISTENCE AND WAS THE MOST
HELPFUL INTERLOCUTOR IN THAT LONG SESSION. WE ALSO
HAVE THE GOOD FORTUNE THAT BOOH BOOH AND GENERAL
DALLAIRE GET ALONG AND KEEP A PROPER RELATION BETWEEN

POLITICAL AND MILITARY PARTS OF THE UN OPERATION.
3. THE PROBLEM IS THAT BOOH BOOH, LIKE ALL OF US, IS
AT A LOSS AS TO WHAT MORE HE CAN DO. HE HAS TRIED ALL
PARTIES' MEETINGS, HE HAS TRIED INDIVIDUAL
CONSULTATIONS. NOW HE, ALONG WITH TAMBWE, IS TRYING
TO BRIDGE THE DIVIDE BETWEEN THE PRESIDENT AND RPF.
HIS SECRETARY GENERAL HAS CALLED THE PRESIDENT WITH
STERN ADMONITIONS. OTHER THAN KEEPING ON THE
DIPLOMATIC PRESSURE, BOOH BOOH HAS SUGGESTED THAT
DONORS MIGHT WANT TO TRY ECONOMIC PRESSURE. IF
RWANDANS DELAY LONG ENOUGH, THAT MAY COME ABOUT BY
ITSELF AS CRITICAL DATES FOR DEVELOPMENT FUNDING ARE
PAST. EACH SIDE SEEMS INNURED TO DIRE WARNINGS AND
INTENT ON SEEKING MAXIMUM ADVANTAGE FROM THIS
INSTALLATION EXERCISE. THOUGHTS ON WHAT WE MIGHT DO
FURTHER WILL FOLLOW THE RESULTS OF THE BOOH BOOH/
. TAMBWE/HABYARIMANA MEETING TOMORROW. RAWSON
