Agree KKR.

Bill also indicated that the $150 million demand seemed to have no valid basis.
No validation given by Government.
Guessing - it may have been based on a later buy out as Anvil increased its stake-hold.

Certainly very strong grounds for having this demand reduced substantially - or removed completely.

There is a suggestion that World Bank will take on a coercive role.
But this has only been inferred and is not categorical.

The bottom line now is - Is the Congo Government going to be stubborn and insistent?
Or will the Government be rational and prepared to compromise?

Difficult Questions?

Somehow I think being prepared compromise is a strong possibility.
