Delayed JMC meeting set to begin

    NAIROBI

    A meeting of the Joint Military Commission (JMC), whose mandate is to implement the Lusaka accord, was expected to take place in the Zambian capital on Tuesday afternoon. Work would continue throughout the night - depending on the scheduled arrival of representatives from the rebel Mouvement de liberation congolais (MLC) and Wamba’s RCD-ML group, diplomatic sources told IRIN on Tuesday. Earlier reported meetings of the JMC in Lusaka on Sunday and Monday were political consultations rather than military meetings, IRIN was told.
