対人能力ゼロのナンパ６
447 ：('∀`)：
I went to see Lafourcade to bring him up to speed and assure him we were
still on net with the handovers and withdrawals of his forces. he was feeling
the squeeze of getting all his people and equipment out in time, and still
hearing some noises that his government might ask him to stay a bit longer.
I told him that staying was out of the question―if he did, the RPF would
break through the zone and confront him. I told him I would be back next week
to personally introduce my replacement, and we parted amicably.
Laforcade provided transport and escorts for me to go and meet Augustin Buzimungu,
who had asked to see me. The former RGF chief of staff was now living in a
comfortable bungalow on a hill overlooking Lake Kivu, and seemed totaly at
home. He was surround by a few senior Zairean officer, a couple of French
officers and and, to my surprise, the same huge RGF lieutenant-colonel who
had come into Bagosora's office on the afternoon of April7 (his G-2, or
intelligence officer, a man said to have been deeply involved in the genocide).
Bizimungu met me at the top of the long staircase up to the house. Both
he and the lieutenant-colonel were in impeccable RGF uniforms down to thier
shiny boots, and Bizimungu looked relaxed, even ebullient, as we sat down to
talk. Soon he had launched into his usual tirade against the RGF, accusing
them of genocide and of targeting RGF officers and their families for
execution. He did not ask me how things were inside Rwanda but gave me an
earful about his desire to go back and sort out the RGF once and for all.
Before he had worked himself up to a complete lather―and perhaps before he
could reveal anything more of their future oparational plans―the lieutenant-
colonel stepped in and effectively ended the meeting. We stood up to make
our farewells. With a wry smile, Bizimungu told me that things were fine
for him and he didn't need to meet anyone from UNAMIR anymore.
Neither og us offered to shake hands.
When I got back to UNAMIR headquarters, after a brief stop in Entebbe
and a visit with President Museveni (who gazed at me kindly and said,
"Well, General, you have certainly aged during this last year"),I saw
that a copy of a later sent by the Secretaly-General to the president of
the Secretaly Counsil was on my desk. My eye went to the crucial sentence:
"...his government has decided to reassign ［Dallaire］to national duties...
［Guy tousignant］will assume his duties on 15 august 1994." There it was,
now official.
