It was understood that differences between the two countries could
spill into the Democratic Republic of Congo, where both countries have
interests.

Sour relations between the two countries began last year when South
Africa led the United Nations Intervention Brigade in eastern DR
Congo.

The UN backed force led by South African National Defence Forces,
pitted South Africa and Tanzania on the one hand, against Rwanda and
Uganda.

Zambian scholar Prof Michelo Hansungule, a senior lecturer at Wits
University said Rwanda's plans to pursue its dissidents in South
Africa and then react by sending six diplomats after SA expelled three
of its own, was aimed at embarrassing President Zuma.

South Africa's International Relations Minister Maite Nkoana-Mashabane
said this week that her country followed proper procedures in
expelling Rwandan diplomats from Pretoria.

But sources within the government said Kigali is not ready budge
despite escalating diplomatic row with Pretoria.

"Rwanda has done more than it could to resolve the matter. There is no
mediation going on. In fact, the two countries are treating it as if
nothing happened except," said a well placed within government,
dismissing reports that Ugandan President Museveni is leading
mediating efforts between the two countries.
