If Belgium allows HBA in, what happens if HBA have to divert. Who'll take them? Who do they put down as their alternate?
This is not a HBA bash, but if other European nations won't take them in then it's alongway to the next airport, Belgium not being the largest of countries.

Bukavu has a lovely pothole just right of centre and only a few hundred metres from the TDZ when landing Rwy 18 (the S'ly facing one, can't remember exact hdg.)Not something you want to hit with heavy braking.
At least the troops don't have to worry about falling out like the IL76 enroute Kinshasa to Lubumbashi.
