Title: The end of the FCC-CACH coalition in the DRC: an inevitable rupture
Introduction :
The DRC recently experienced the end of the political coalition between the Common Front for Congo (FCC) and Cap pour leChange (CACH), which had been formed during the country’s first democratic alternation. Despite the hopes placed in this alliance to provide continuity and change, tensions and differences between the two parties eventually led to a rift. In this article, we will return to the reasons for this separation and analyze the implications of this situation for the political future of the country.
The Decline of the FCC-CACH Alliance:
The FCC-CACH coalition, which brought together the party of new President Félix Tshisekedi on the one hand and the party of former President Joseph Kabila on the other, was formed with the aim of guaranteeing a smooth transition and effective management. state municipality. However, tensions between the two political alliances quickly emerged. Major disagreements, such as the appointment of judges to the Constitutional Court, have contributed to widening the rift between the two sides.
The choice of the Sacred Union of the Nation:
Faced with the impossibility of maintaining effective collaboration with the FCC, President Tshisekedi chose to create a new electoral platform, the Sacred Union of the Nation. This coalition brings together political and social forces that support President Tshisekedi’s social project. He thus hopes to be able to put in place the political, economic and social reforms necessary for the development of the country.
Felix Tshisekedi’s regrets:
Despite the breakdown of the FCC-CACH alliance, President Tshisekedi expressed regret over the end of this coalition. He saw in this collaboration an opportunity to show that a peaceful and fraternal change was possible in Congo. However, he laments that the FCC remained focused on its interests and did not agree to share power fairly.
Implications for the political future:
The end of the FCC-CACH coalition raises questions about the political stability and governance of the DRC. President Tshisekedi will now have to count on the support of the Sacred Union of the Nation to carry out his reforms and implement his political program. However, he will also face challenges such as building a solid parliamentary majority and managing relations with other political forces in the country.
Conclusion :
The end of the FCC-CACH coalition in the DRC marks a major break in the Congolese political landscape. If President Tshisekedi expresses regret about this separation, he hopes to be able to carry out his social project with the Sacred Union of the Nation. The political future of the DRC remains uncertain, however, and it will be necessary to closely follow political developments and the actions of the government to understand the consequences of this rupture
