SDNY COURTHOUSE, Jan 2 – Taiwan or the Republic of China lent Zaire now the DR Congo $20 million in 1991. Now DRC is not paying, and Taiwan has sued.
Taiwan's Ex-Im Bank on December 29 filed to U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York Judge Jesse M. Furman a status report; Inner City Press found it in the docket.
Taiwan's Ex-Im Bank's counsel says they met with DRC Minister of Justice Rose Mutombo - but that nothing has happened since, according to Benita Kindongo.
The case is The Export-Import Bank of the Republic of China v. Democratic Republic of the Congo, 16-cv-4480 (Furman)
