However, as they say, is the best cloth that drops the stain. Maybe here is more than a simple stain to fall into cloth. It's probably uncover the package to see the real image of Joaquim Chissano: Cynical and truly dangerous.
All this is the subject of recent public statements by Joaquim Chissano around the requirements that led the Renamo leader Afonso Dhlakama to settle in the forests of Gorongosa, specifically in the administrative post of Vunduzi. Chissano, without hesitation and without blinking, said he doubts the very consciousness and lucidity of Dhlakama. Chissano mean, in other words, that Dhlakama spoke and made the decision that took unconsciously. The vast unconsciousness of Dhlakama, according Chissano, is that they have asked the PR was Gorongosa negotiate with him. For Chissano, Dhlakama has no standing to make this call. He (Dhlakama) God is not for now, said Chissano. Chissano has yet to understand that the most reasonable Guebuza was Dhlakama invite to meet him in a city and not a distant (?) Administrative post of a province (Rebel?).
Chissano believes that Dhlakama should make application and send it to the president's office, asking audience. Several ideas were thrown by Joaquim Chissano to qualify demonically Dhlakama behavior and suggest how Renamo leader one should behave in civilized world.
At these words also comes on top of the latest pronouncement of Joaquim Chissano on the dribble which could give Dhlakama, during the last moments of the negotiation of the Comprehensive Peace Agreement in Rome. Chissano said, without hesitation, 20 years after the signing of the GPA, which could feint Dhlakama. So Chissano was to boast to have been able to use his cleverness to trick a Renamo leader sleeper and politically unprepared for máfiaÂÂ that uses the political game. We do not know that Chissano had intention to make such pronouncements, but one thing is clear. Of conciliation and reliever this speech has nothing. Only uncovers wounds and creates, in part deceived a spirit of anger and hatred. Probably this is the intention of Joaquim Chissano. If indeed this was his intention, Chissano succeeded because Dhlakama became angry and went to install the forests of Gorongosa.
Well, we will not discuss here the validity and legitimacy of ideas Chissano nor will we try to uncover the culprits for the current situation, but it is important to discuss the context in which the statements are made, the size and how they can be received by the parties on Verbal and ideological conflict and even how the speech will be received by Mozambicans in general.
It is that we are in a troubled time. A moment that requires a discursoÂÂ reliever, especially the ward apparently stronger.
First things first: the question of asking audience. Often, by which we remember, particularly in times prior to the signing of the GPA and after the 1999 elections, Joaquim Chissano met with Dhlakama many occasions, all with a view to finding solutions to the concerns that were raised by Renamo and its leader. We remember several meetings in the old Military Club in the city of Maputo. for these meetings, so you know, it was not necessary to mark hearings, as now Chissano suggests. There were mornings, afternoons, days, nights and early mornings that delegations headed by Joaquim Chissano and Afonso Dhlakama in a tete-a-tete to discuss and find consensus points that divided them. More after the 1999 elections, Joaquim Chissano and Afonso Dhlakama (with respective delegations) sat in the premises of Parliament to discuss specific points that Renamo and Dhlakama put on the table. These discussions, as required by Renamo did not happen in the Presidency, precisely because Renamo demanded that happen in a neutral place. And indeed gave Chissano. Relented, probably because at that time was Dhlakama God.
Chissano should be thinking (rightly or wrongly) that Dhlakama is in a moment of weakness and that, therefore, ceased to be God. No longer God, there is no reason to listen.
Second, the question of going to Gorongosa. The tone used by Chissano to say Gorongosa was no place to host any conversation, it seemed that Chissano was saying or trying to say that Guebuza, as Head of State, can not get together with someone (someone who is not God) in bush and in an unknown location. Chissano was saying or trying to say that is not the territory Gorongosa in Mozambique? or was he trying to say that Armando Guebuza is so important that it can not leave the comfort and luxury of the Presidential Palace and Presidential Cabinet to step into the woods Gorongosa meeting with Dhlakama (not God). This understanding is completely absurd to us, reckless and dangerous, a hazard that represents the size of the danger Joaquim Chissano poses to peace, stability and harmony of the country. It is a discourse that feeds localism, regionalism and divisiveness. The question that arises here is: will Chissano was in his full consciousness when spoke in those terms? Just in case, we have our doubts. If we can prove that he was in full mental faculty, it is important to ask, what was then the intention that Chissano had to actually utter those words? Flatter Guebuza? Guebuza Shoot the precipice? Guebuza of revenge? Why? Throw the country into chaos? Well, there are several questions that can be asked and so far the answer is all speculative field and hopefully leave the field speculative case Chissano, one day, to tell the Mozambicans who actually meant by his statement. Gorongosa, where Guebuza today should not go by the board of Chissano's where this same Guebuza will very briefly kneel and ask for votes for Frelimo and its candidate, the thousands of Mozambicans who are there. Therefore, we do not see the least problem in Gorongosa Guebuza go talk to Dhlakama. In fact, the point that arises is neither the venue is rather the need to show that the parties are fighting for the same goal and are fully and completely open to dialogue. The meeting can happen in Gorongosa, in Maringue, in Palma, in Songo, in Majacaze on Lake ... anywhere in the vast country. Guebuza won much to show this spirit of openness to dialogue because for a good listener, kind gesture is enough. If so acting, Guebuza claramenteÂÂ is registered as man of peace because even Gorongosa will ido the search for peace. Indeed, the pursuit of peace, the Mozambican government has been negotiating with the Maringué Renamo, has been to Malawi, Kenya, in Rome and elsewhere in the world. And then, it comes and goes all was coordinated by Joaquim Chissano. The idea was just to seek and secure peace for Mozambique. why can not it happen now? Just because Dhlakama is not God, we prefer to throw the country into the gutter?
Discuss legitimacy of the defenses of each of the wings is complicated matter that can only be fully and definitively clarified by the parties. However, we risk saying that not everything that comes from the mouth of Dhlakama is useless.
In fact, most of the concerns that has been be submitted by Renamo leader, has also been a running complaint of opposition political parties, academics, non-governmental organizations national and international bilateral partners of Mozambique and a considerable number of Mozambican population. It is true that the protocols of AGP were all incorporated and consumed by the Constitution, but it is not the Constitution that says that the state should be partisan, it is not the Constitution that says only the veterans, and their rulers next should be bigger and better opportunities compared to other Mozambican, it is not the Constitution that says that Frelimo members who are caught trying to rig the election results can not be tried (several examples), not the Constitution Republic which says that members of MDM in Inhambane tinhamÂÂ to be tried and convicted in a court case clearly manipulated to silence opposition, it is not the Constitution that says that the PRM must act in the interests of the ruling party, is not the Constitution of the Republic who made the demobilized Renamo were not incorporated in the police, it is not the Constitution that made the elements of Renamo in FADM were purged, it is not the Constitution that protects and sends deputies Frelimo winning 2-3-4 wages of one State under serene and quiet by those who should say no to this ... is an endless number of things listed in language as complaints of noisy and tortuosaÂÂ Dhlakama. Just this week, Renamo exhibited in full plenary session of RA, more documentary evidence of the politicization of the state, but in absolute cynicism, members of Frelimo bench smiled because convinced that nothing will happen to them. These situations are all worrying for any Mozambican and we must frame the concerns Dhlakama this state of things and then try to caress him responding positively the essence of their concerns. With that nobody loses. Only we all have to win. But reaching this desideratum need people humble people who cultivate common sense, lucid and conscious people committed to peace. By all indications, all these features Joaquim Chissano do not.
With the recent pronouncements of Chissano, who is there now coming to the conclusion that peace processes mediated by Chissano will never have a happy ending, just because the former President to be a diplomat and man of good sense, nothing has.
Some are also hypothesize Chissano be using their malice to offend the current President. In fact, it is said that within the Frelimo remain wards, a pro Chissano and other pro Guebuza. More, Chissano said that he felt and still feels humiliated because of three minutes granted by Armando Guebuza, the Congress of Pemba. Some people also understand that Chissano is receiving some kind of pressure from within Frelimo to try to cajole the visionary boss, wiping some of the pressure that exists against Guebuza, that the need for dialogue with the Renamo leader.
Also in relation to the pronouncements of Chissano, President of the PDD, Raul Domingos, said at a press conference yesterday afternoon that was stunned by the pronouncement of Chissano, because, more than anyone, he (Chissano) know what is the scope of Dhlakama pronouncements. More, believes Raul Domingos "Chissano doctor is not to say that Dhlakama is unconscious."
Given all this, and because we are still in the speculative field on the degree of awareness of Chissano when uttered those words nor their real intention, we believe that the old PR was, once again, publicly clarify the doubts that now loom. For yes, not by, Chissano will take your past pronouncements marked for having lost an important opportunity to keep quiet because, as a precept Chinese says "silence is golden, the silver valley floor." That means: talk only when you have something useful to say. (Fernando Mbanze)
