The Beacon Journal A plea to end bloodshed Exiled King Kigeli calls for peace among all Rwandans to end 'pure genocide' PageAlO, Monday, May 2, 1994 AW (Ml before its gone. BY GENE KRAMER Associated Press Washington: The exiled king of Rwanda says he will do whatever he can to promote peace in his strife-torn homeland but is not trying to thrust himself back into power. "Anyone who wants peace is with me, anyone who doesn't want peace is against me," regardless, of tribal origins, said the former King Kigeli V. Kigeli reigned for a year before being deposed in 1960 while the central African country was a U.N. trust territory administered by Belgium.

Now 57, Kigeli lives in a plain apartment in the Maryland suburbs, less than 10 miles from the White House. He said in an interview that he wants to do whatever possible to promote peace for his tormented country. But, he emphasized, "I am making no claim to impose myself upon Rwanda as king. My call is for peace among all Rwan-dese." Kigeli said he was thankful for President Clinton's call Saturday for an immediate cease-fire and peace negotiations between rebel Kigeli said he got no response to his warning only five weeks ago to U.N. organizations and to the Organization of African Unify that time was running out for establishing the transitional government mandated by an August 1993 peace agreement.

"There is something wrong this delay scares many people," he said in a March 21 memorandum that he said was sent also to the State Department, the Rwandan government, the rival Rwan-dese Patriotic Front and Washington embassies. The latest fighting exploded two weeks later, after President Juvenal Habyarimana and the leader of neighboring Burundi were killed in a suspicious plane crash in Kigali. The former king has experienced many setbacks during more than three decades in exile that started, he said, when Belgian authorities refused to allow him to return from a meeting in Zaire with then U.N. Secretary-General Dag Hammarskjold. After living in various African countries, he came to Washington 23 months ago.

Arafat and Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin are to sign the autonomy agreement Wednesday at a ceremony in Cairo.

They are scheduled to meet Tuesday night to iron out any last-minute disputes. Maj. Gen. Amnon Shahak, the chief Israeli delegate, brushed past reporters as he entered Sunday's talks, saying only, "Wait until Wednesday everything will be finished." Palestinian negotiator Khaled el-Qudra said the two sides were drafting the final wording of the agreement. "I think we're near the end and I think we'll finish," he said.

Under the accord, the Israelis were to start withdrawing Dec. 13 and complete the pullout by April 13. But the deadlines passed with negotiators still arguing over how broad the autonomy would be and how Jewish settlers would be protected in Gaza. When the scheduled signing was announced last Thursday, differences remained over control of territorial waters and beaches, the freeing of Palestinian prisoners, and jurisdiction over lawbreakers. But both Israeli and PLO negotiators said the disputes were mostly minor and could be worked out Two disagreements have been set aside for Rabin and Arafat to resolve: how much land Israeli will give up around Jericho and whether a uniformed Palestinian will be stationed on the bridge between Jordan and the West Bank near Jericho.
