For blot nogle få måneder siden blev Kabila i vores egne beslutninger beskrevet som en selvudråbt præsident, hans styre som midlertidigt og hans politiske fremgangsmåde som overgreb på borgerrettighederne.
Just a few months ago, in our own resolutions, Mr Kabila was described as the self-proclaimed president, his government as provisional, and his political practice as cracking down on freedom.
