Mister Dirk Niebel,
Has Germany unblocks suspended Aid to Rwanda (despites all the UN reports about Rwanda's major responsibilty recently confirmed by CNN http://amanpour.blogs.cnn.com/
Could you watch the unwatchable story of Congo Mister Dirk Niebel ?

* To understand this :
Germany unblocks $26m suspended Aid to Rwanda
http://newsofrwanda.com/
* You should be aware of this :
The Lueshe Mine is located in the Territoire de Rutshuru, north of Rutshuru town, exploiting one of the world's biggest reserves of pyrochlore, an ore of niobium. It is said to be the most valuable mineral resource of the eastern Congo but the mine has been officially closed for some years due to disputes over ownership of mining rights, the instability of the region, and the need to rehabilitate the mining equipment. Smuggling of pyrochlore by rebels (Laurent Nkunda - M23 etc ) take place across the border into Rwanda ...
"... Gesellschaft fuer Elektrometallurgie (GfE) reincorporated in the United States as Metallurg Inc. hold a virtual worldwide monopoly on an ore called pyrochlore (niobium) ... and thus control the world’s supply, which acts on the supply side to set niobium’s market price, and also to prevent other countries not aligned with the U.S. from obtaining it to use for their own purposes ..."

* So, the question is : Has Germany unblocks suspended Aid to Rwanda to continue to access, through Gesellschaft fuer Elektrometallurgie (GfE), to the pyrochlore (niobium) of the Lueshe Mine officially closed where M23 rebels are using Congolese slaves to extract it ?
Is this Germany, the great European nation ?

Réponse du Ministère allemand de la Coopération Internationale au Développement

Thank you very much for your mail to the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ)
On 30 January 2013, Federal Minister Niebel met the Rwandan Foreign Minister Louise Mushikiwabo in Berlin for talks. In the light of the recent positive efforts by the Rwandan government to contribute within the regional process to a political solution in East Congo, and given the impact of decisions regarding budget support on the country's economic development, Federal Minister Niebel has decided to reprogram part of the amount earmarked for bilateral general budget support in the financial year 2012/2013. This amount of 7 million euros will be used instead for activities in the priority area of sustainable economic development, especially vocational training.
No decision has been made so far regarding the remaining 14 million euros earmarked for general budget support. Germany will be following political developments very closely and the decision we make will be based on our assessment of the information available.
I hope this information is of assistance to you.
Yours sincerely
on behalf of BMZ
