M23, a Rwanda-backed armed rebel group, are fighting in the Democratic Republic of the Congo – and they’re gaining ground.

3:17 correction it is not 1994 Rwandan genocide, it 1994 genocide against the Tutsi
European control, it's been over a hundred years, they need to take responsibility for their current day politics.
If the army is raping its own women. Then 🤦🤦
There’s only one ethnic group. Africans
The UN groups of experts never talk about mass killing done by the coalition of the DRC government, when many civilians are subjected to horrific acts of violence, including burning and cannibalism just because they look Tutsis. Some of these acts are done on camera but they are never reported and I don't understand why. Even when they are reported they talk about it in general to sound like the M23 did it. It's crazy
I rarely, see UN reports of a mass killing of HEMA communities by CODECO in Ituri province, I rarely see reports of killing of Banyamurenge communities in South Kivu by government forces and other reckless militia groups which surrounds them. Yet all reports focus on M23 who are disciplined and protect civilians regardless of their ethnicity.
In my point of view, the UN groups of experts in DRC are driven by their economic interest there and I am afraid, they will never report the whole truth on the ground when it does not align with their interests.
When Kagame says that he, like the M23, is trying to save the Tutsis who are discriminated against in the DRC, who created that problem in the first place? Is this really his reason for being in the DRC, or is it about resources? Following the genocide in Rwanda, he was the one who devised a plan to push the Hutus into the DRC to eliminate them. This led to clashes between the Hutus and the Congolese Tutsis, who had been in the DRC since 1959 and are Congolese citizens. If they are Congolese and this is a Congolese problem, then what is Kagame doing in the DRC? Hitler used the same excuse—saving German Poles—to justify his invasion of Poland. Do we remember? If the international community wants to resolve this problem and take away that excuse from Kagame, Rwanda must go back to what it was during the Congo -Rwanda-Urundi time, a province of the DR Congo. This will help us put an end to the Tutsis and Hutus' century long standing conflict in Rwanda that as we can see, is being exported in neighboring countries and has now been destabilizing the Great Lake region; And because the DR Congo has more than 450 tribes living in peace, the Hutus and Tutsis can easily be diluted in the general population without the possibility of a constant face off.
I have always said that Western-style democracy is a trap set for Africa to divide its citizens and create wars through endless election disputes, often financed from abroad. In Congo, we all know that we re-elected our president with over 73% of the vote due to the positive changes he has initiated in the country. Even results from the diaspora, where Western media had all their cameras to observe the process, were even higher. So, what excuse do Naanga or the M23 have for taking up arms instead of joining a democratic process to gain power or defend a cause?
This, dear Africans, is the very trap I was talking about. The issue of the Tutsis recently arose in Uganda—did they not choose to go through the courts and successfully obtain justice regarding their immigration status? Is the Congo not a sovereign nation capable of handling its immigration issues according to its Constitution?
The real problem is the theft of minerals and territories, and Naanga, the M23, and their sponsor are nothing more than terrorists causing millions of deaths in Congo. Africans should not tolerate these atrocities.
As for the FDLR, which Kagame presents as a threat to his power—ironically, they are today part of the Rwandan army. Who are they trying to fool?
I would like an expert in psychology to enlighten us on the following question: What are the psychological and social effects when an ethnic group, wherever it is located, feels discriminated against?
This phenomenon about Tutsis is evident in several countries in East and Central Africa, including Uganda, Tanzania, Burundi, Rwanda, the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), and Congo-Brazzaville.
Is this situation because this community lives in regions where it is not historically rooted? Is it linked to certain cultural or behavioral traits that create tensions with local populations? Is it the result of a past marked by conflict and trauma, such as the events of 1954 in Rwanda, a defense mechanism against real or perceived threats?
Observing Kagame’s actions and the criticism he faces from the international community, can we say, as some members of his community might claim, that he is being unfairly targeted? Could his bad political and strategic decisions be exacerbating tensions and reinforcing the sense of rejection of his community experiences, whether justified or not?
I believe the time has come for the Tutsi people to engage in self-reflection and self-criticism.
This is the harmful foreign interference we have been talking about—the kind that never allows Congo a moment to focus on its own development.
As soon as the new president, Tshisekedi, began implementing major projects (roads, ports, airports, schools, hospitals, free healthcare, free education, etc.) across the country—after having quadrupled the national budget in just five years—Rwanda and its sponsors immediately orchestrated and launched a war in eastern Congo. Chaos benefits them, as it has since 1960, albeit in different forms.
This is not love for Africa. But Africa will not bow down!
Why was the DRC under an arms embargo that was only lifted last year after President Tshisekedi applied pressure? The answer is simple: it was meant to weaken the Congolese army, allowing Rwanda to plunder Congolese resources for Western capitals. This is part of a larger international plot involving powerful multinationals and states, backed by some corrupt media outlets. However, they will not succeed, because President Tshisekedi is quite something and a determined leader, and the global population has had enough of these injustices. Stay tuned to witness the resilience of a people fighting for a noble cause!
Officially, the UN forces and the so-called UN experts in the DRC went there to bring peace, but in reality, they have other interests. They want the conflict to continue because if it ends, their jobs will be over. The UN spends 1 billion dollars every year on MONUSCO forces who literally do nothing.
Western media rarely talk about how UN forces have been involved in arms deals with the very militia groups they were sent to fight and have also engaged in mining businesses. People have been killed just meters away from UN forces, yet there is no reaction from them or the so-called UN groups of experts in DRC.
三三制，三大注意八项纪律，支部建在连上，政委带队清洁街道，这是为什么城市赶紧，that all
The Republic of congo should just ask Trump for aid in exhanchage for half it s natural resources making the USA their best friend for decades to come.
Isn't there anyone here to say something about China? Haha
I once worked for a mining company in Africa. I am only pointing out a few points as an outsider observer, not supporting nor pointing fingers at anyone.
1, Geographically, the eastern part of Congo is virtually cut off from the west part. The Congo’s domestic transport heavily relies on ferries on Congo river, but the big river does not flow to the east, not to the Goma region.
2, as there’s no reliable transport between Goma and the western part, it’s very hard to transport local mining to the west Congo. So, local income heavily relies export to it’s eastern neighbours. Guess who are Congo’s eastern neighbours? What I feel is that, mining in eastern Congo is a free take for Rwanda and Tanzania 😂, as long as Congo transport system fails to reach east.
3, in terms of economy and social influence, the Goma region has been long lost to the Congo government. This invasion is just the last seal on the paper.
4, Congo government is among the most miserable I have seen around the world. However, Rwanda and Tanzania are two very articulate players on diplomatic worlds. Rwanda takes income from Congo mines, use it as deposits to loan money from American, Chinese, British, Russian, Israelisn and basically every major players. Rwanda then uses the loan to modernise its military and infrastructure. As long as Rwanda can keeps the money flow from the “expansion “, everyone will support him, or at least keep silent, pretending not seeing anything.
Rwanda covets Congos natural resources which are diamonds and gold among others so it is funding a tusi conglonese rebel force called M23 to fight Congos troops under the guise of figthing for the nation's tussi minority. Meanwhile the plebes welcome this rebel group with open arms likely bc they are not aware of the list of warcrimes already accumulated according to human rights groups.

We africans hate USA and UN they are the ones escalating war in DRC. Poor journalist you dont know what M23 is, you report what you heard from UN ask the Congolese what M23 is. People fighting for their own nation nothing else. Rwanda is not supporting M23, even if they support it so what? America is stealing from Congo, we dont want UN in Congo we hate you!!
You ain’t even mention the banyamulenge who are the real people at risk here… crazy how you made this thinking it was educational
FAKE INFORMATION. The DRC are 110 million, backed up by armies from UN, Burundi, South Africa, Kenya, Malawi and Uganda, Rwanda has 14 million people, suffer 800,000 Tutsi murdered in 100 days in 1994. The M23 are Congolese Tutsi fighting for their rights in Congo, supported by Rwanda. Congo is corrupted and worthless, Rwanda is democratic
Let Ruwandans take some of congo because this useless government of congo doesn’t do anything for its people at least ruwanda will build the land they govern
stop lying and toxicating the world population.
