Absolutely.
Those thieving troglodytes deserve every bit of vitriol and every insult we can throw at them, and then a bit more just to be safe.

The thing is, these people are have dark triad, psychopathic minds, they don't care what you think of them, they don't even care what their constituents think of them beyond how they can benefit them.
The question is then, what is there to gain from insulting or berating them? The answer is none, outside of making you feel better, there is nothing to be gained. You aren't going to make them change their ways, or the imbedded culture of corruption that enables them. Unless you have leverage over them such as the US and ISCID you are wasting your time.
Just save your energy in my opinion.
I think Jens is a bit of a blowhard and wanna-be spokesperson for AVZ shareholders which can leave a bad taste in my mouth with how he tries to tell other shareholders how they should feel/act.
Having said that, I do have respect for the often telegraphed and considered takes August has given his background and connections so willing to give the benefit of the doubt.

Aug/Sept ? ICSID in full swing ? Delayed?
Been there before with don't antagonise the fat bastard. Or something like that.
The thieving, robbing, lying bunch of shits are a thieving, robbing, lying bunch of shits who rape and pillage their own country.
We are still in the game partly because of the fight that AVZ and many of it's SH have put up.
LIKE TELLING THE TRUTH.
Long may it continue.
PS this is the tame version with the girls rightfully in mind.
Hey mate attached is a vid explaining the process. So hopefully 2 months and peace accord plus bilateral economic agreements (minerals deal) are finalised. This then opens the door for Kobold, Rio et al to proceed ( 1 or 2 months to do the deal ? ) which puts us in Aug/Sept.
The ICSID continues irrespective of the above and certainally adds some big heat to the fire
My birthday is 30 September so fingers crossed for a massive birthday present

I guess the Jurisdiction issue needs to be put to bed (in our favour) before the case can commence. There is no apparent indication of any delay at this stage, but (other than them trying to have the whole thing thrown out), it's another delay tactic for sure.
From a reputational perspective, DRC will be under immense pressure to get something done prior to the case commencing, but perhaps their hides are thick enough to bear the ICSID revelations, and the outline published above by @Strongman is how it will play out

DRC-Rwanda: The United States sets conditions for Kinshasa and Kigali before signing any mining agreement
The US spokesman, Mr. Boulos, asserts that before signing any mining agreement announced between the DRC and Rwanda, Kigali must withdraw its troops from Congolese soil.
The United States is not stopping there.
The Trump administration, through the US spokesman, is also calling on the Kagame regime to stop supporting the M23 rebels.
On the Congolese side, the US spokesman states on his X account that the DRC must, in turn, address Rwanda's security concerns regarding the FDLR.
This mining contract provides for the exploitation of mineral resources in the Democratic Republic of Congo in exchange for securing the eastern part of the country, as well as a massive investment in infrastructure, reportedly estimated at nearly US$500 billion over a 15-year period.

Aug/Sep is sooner than my previous guess and I am ecstatic to finally have a possible target date. But while I am usely impulsive, this time I will not rush out and buy that Porsche in advance.
Back in 2022 I planned to start selling down my AVZ position, and sold 10% at $1.30 and used the proceeds to buy a Mercedes GLS AMG model just few weeks before the AVZ suspension. But it was too late to cancel my Mercedes order without losing my $25k deposit.
After selling the first 10% in early 2022, I was planning to sell much more that year as part of my SMSF tax strategy ... but then disaster struck.

U.S. Pushes Congo and Rwanda to Sign Ukraine-Style Mineral Deals
Massad Boulos, President Donald Trump’s senior adviser for Africa policy, told Reuters on Thursday that the administration wants the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) and Rwanda to sign a peace treaty with each other — and then sign Ukraine-style minerals deals with the United States.Boulos predicted a minerals deal with the DRC would be signed on the same day as the Congo-Rwanda peace accords, “and then a similar package, but of a different size, will be signed on that day with Rwanda.”
That day, according to Boulos, should come sometime in the next two months.
At a meeting in Washington last week, the DRC and Rwanda agreed to an ambitious timetable that included both of them submitting drafts of their half of the peace treaty on May 2.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio is scheduled to preside over another meeting in Washington to finalize the peace treaty by mid-May.
Rwanda’s side of the deal included a pledge to stop supporting M23 and other insurgent groups that have been rampaging through the eastern Congo.
The insurgents captured several key cities in the DRC at the beginning of the year, and when they marched through the gates of their captured towns, Rwandan troops marched right alongside them.
In return for Rwanda pulling out its troops and halting support for the insurgents, the DRC will promise to take Rwanda’s security concerns seriously, including action against a Rwandan insurgent group that operates in the Congo, the Democratic Forces for the Liberation of Rwanda (FDLR).
The FDLR is one of more than a hundred armed groups operating in the eastern Congo.
It is of particular concern to Rwanda because its members are mostly members of the Hutu tribe and they are determined to overthrow the government of Rwanda, which is largely controlled by the Tutsi tribe at present.
The Hutus attempted to exterminate the Tutsis in the 1994 Rwandan genocide.
Boulos said the bilateral mineral deals between the U.S. and the two African nations would have to be completed before the peace treaty could be signed.
“The (agreement) with the DRC is at a much bigger scale, because it’s a much bigger country and it has much more resources, but Rwanda also has a lot of resources and capacities and potential in the area of mining as well … not just the upstream, but also midstream and downstream to processing and refining and trading,” he told Reuters.
After meeting in Doha, Qatar, on Thursday, delegations from the DRC and Rwanda said they were close to agreement on a draft of the peace treaty.
Boulos was not exaggerating when he said a U.S. minerals deal with the DRC would be much larger than a deal with Rwanda.
The DRC has trillions of dollars’ worth of untapped mineral resources, including precious metals, cobalt, copper, and lithium.
The unstable security situation in the eastern Congo is a major reason why these resources have not been tapped.
Investors will want to see the area pacified before they pour huge amounts of money into mining and refining projects.
M23 insurgents have reportedly seized control of major Congolese mines and shipped the pilfered minerals to Rwanda.
The United Nations was supposed to stabilize the region with a peacekeeping force called MONUSCO and, while it helped to push M23 back over a decade ago, it has been largely ineffective during the current crisis.
President Felix Tshisekedi asked MONUSCO to withdraw last year, but the peacekeepers are still there.
Seventeen of them have been killed so far this year during battles between M23 and Congolese government forces.
South Africa announced on Thursday that it has begun withdrawing its peacekeepers from rebel-held areas in the eastern Congo.
Malawi and Tanzania are also pulling their forces out, believing them to be trapped in hostile territory after M23 advanced and captured the city of Goma in January.
Hundreds of Congolese troops were also cut off by the rebel advance.
The International Committee of the Red Cross began escorting those soldiers and their families out of rebel territory on Wednesday.
President Tshisekedi raised the idea in March of giving the U.S. exclusive mineral rights in exchange for assistance against the M23 insurgency.
“Your election has ushered in the golden age for America. Our partnership would provide the U.S. with a strategic advantage by securing critical minerals such as cobalt, lithium, copper and tantalum from the Democratic Republic of Congo,” Tshisekedi told President Donald Trump in a letter.
Boulos, who has existing business interests in Africa, made a trip to the DRC soon after Tshisekedi sent his letter to begin hammering out the terms of a mineral deal.

Personally, I agree 100% with Jens. If a fat boy comes down under to Aussie land, I would like to give him a warm welcome and invite him over for a friendly family BBQ, to meet my favourite little friend, bbb&b
.
We could play hide & seek, he gets to hide and hold onto the ball, I close my eyes and count to 10 and see if I can find him, and if I can then I show him just how much I care.... ps don't forget to bring your scrawny little mate with you.Of course I'm joking, come on down, we will pop a shrimp on the barrrbie,
it will be great.Yep, as of tomorrow, the start of the new week I will show 2 weeks of constraint, promise! now that I've scratched that itch.
