### Land conflict in Kabambare: towards a necessary reconciliation

The recent land conflict between the villages Lumamba and Kavundaganya, in the territory of Kabambare, highlights social fractures and the challenges of governance in the Democratic Republic of Congo. The violence has left seven seriously injured and revealed acts of sexual violence, illustrating a trauma that goes beyond physical injuries. The Minister of the Interior, Lawamo Selemani, promised that the culprits would be brought to justice, but the distrust of the uninformed promises remains. The deputy Emedi Amuri proposes to favor a “customary solution”, stressing the importance of local dialogue in the resolution of land conflicts. In a context where more than 70 % of conflicts in the DRC are linked to the land, it is vital to reform resources management practices. Kabambare’s tragic events must be a catalyst to act in favor of peaceful coexistence, where land rights and justice are not empty words, but foundations for a common future.

### Kuwait: the forfeiture of nationality and its alarming consequences

Kuwait, formerly considered a model of democracy in the Gulf, is experiencing a tumultuous period marked by the forfeiture of nationality of nearly 42,000 nationals in just six months. With a permissive legislative framework making it possible to deprive citizens of their rights on waves, this authoritarian drift raises crucial questions about the nature of citizenship and the future of civil rights in the country.

This situation generates a palpable anxiety among Kuwaitians, who scrutinize the lists published regularly, revealing the deep emotional impact on affected families. Economic implications are not to be overlooked, many entrepreneurs hesitating to invest in the face of this growing uncertainty.

Human rights organizations, such as Amnesty International, denounce these practices as an unacceptable attack on fundamental rights, calling on the international community to react to avoid a shift towards authoritarianism. Kuwait is therefore at a critical turning point, where the protection of individual freedoms is more than ever threatened.

### Trump Tower: a demonstration that resonates beyond borders

On March 13, 2025, Trump Tower in New York became the scene of a significant demonstration organized by Jewish Voice for Peace.

At the heart of the protest, the provocative slogan “fight the Nazis, not the students” reveals an audacious analogy with the totalitarian regimes of the 20th century, while raising crucial questions about anti -Semitism and the radicalization of public discourse.

Historically, this struggle recalls the movements of civil rights of the 1960s, where powerful slogans and strong symbols galvanized generations. The presence in the demonstrations of descendants of Holocaust survivors, such as Jane Hirschmann, underlines the importance of collective memory as a tool for mobilization. Ultimately, this event at the Trump Tower goes beyond the simple walls of the skyscraper; It represents a deep reflection on the values ​​of democratic societies and an appeal to reconcile conflictual discourse in the name of equality and human rights.

** Title: A decisive meeting for the country’s political future **

In a tumultuous context marked by multiple crises, Prime Minister Judith Suminwa recently met the Office of the National Assembly, a crucial initiative to strengthen unity between government and parliament. This meeting, held on March 11, aims not only to prepare for the start of parliamentary school, but also to face major challenges such as armed violence and the economic crisis.

Suminwa insisted on the need to establish a “permanent collaboration framework” between the two institutions in order to avoid political blockages that have slowed the reforms in the past. By presenting a specific inventory of the political, economic and security situation, it calls for a concerted action to revitalize the key sectors, in particular security and agriculture, while meeting the needs of the 5 to 6 million people displaced by conflicts.

The success of this initiative nevertheless depends on the commitment of parliamentarians to transform discussions into concrete actions. While the parliamentary session is looming, the country’s political future could be redefined if constructive dialogue and effective communication are established. In short, this meeting may well mark the start of a new era for governance in this nation in search of peace and stability.

### Greenland: elections and quest for identity in the heart of the Arctic

The recent parliamentary elections in Greenland, marked by the rise of the Pro-Business Demokraatik party, underline a major political transformation on this strategic island. With support of 29.9 % for Demokraatik, against 36.1 % for the outgoing Inuit ATAQATIGIIT and SIUMUT government, Greenland is at a crossroads between increasing autonomy and historic dependence in Denmark.

Beyond political rivalries, the question of cultural identity emerges forcefully. The Greenlanders, in search of true autonomy, express a desire to overcome the colonial inheritances while preserving their unique heritage.

### Boualem Sansal: the imprisonment of a writer, symbol of a global fight for freedom

The Boualem Sansal affair, a Franco-Algerian writer imprisoned in Algeria, goes beyond national borders and resonates as a rallying cry for freedom of expression on a global scale. His incarceration without trial, in a context of growing repression of dissident voices, recalls the dark chapters of Algerian history and alerts to a climate of fear that intensifies in France in the face of the rise of nationalism.

Sansal not only embodies past struggles but also the aspirations of a new generation of Algerian writers, often reduced to silence. His detention raises identity and geopolitical issues between Algeria and France, highlighting a shared story, marked by pain but also hope.

With the international community that is organized around its support, the case resonates as a vital call to defend fundamental rights. The case of Sansal, examined at the level of the United Nations, invites vigilance and collective action to protect those who, by their pen, dare to challenge the silence and bring the voice of the oppressed. In the end, the story of Boualem Sansal is that of a fight for freedom that challenges us all and pushes us to question our own responsibility in the face of repression.

** Enrollment of students in military reserves: between patriotism and educational issues in the DRC **

The initiative to enlist Congolese students in the military reserves of the Armed Forces of the Democratic Republic of Congo arouses strong enthusiasm, but also important questions. Launched in Kisangani under the patronage of the Minister of Higher Education, Marie Thérèse Sombo, this campaign raises crucial issues on the relationships between education and national defense. While young people are part of a patriotic act in the face of increasing insecurity, it is relevant to question their real motivations and the supervision which will be offered to them. The quality of the training and the risk of deviation from academic journeys concern, while some fear that this dynamic will move away students from their professional aspirations. In this context, it is essential to establish a balance between the duty to defend the nation and the need for fulfilling education, to shape enlightened and responsible citizens. The DRC must respond to this challenge, because the future of its young people and its society depends on it.

The drama that occurred in Selembao, where three innocent people lost their lives during a daring robbery, highlights the disturbing climbing of urban violence in Kinshasa. This tragic incident, perpetrated by nine armed bandits, raises questions about the effectiveness of safety measures and the implications of a climate of growing fear within the population. While armed robberies increase by 20% in the capital, financial security issues become crucial for establishments such as the shop TNT services, which play a vital role in the economic life of the Congolese.

** DRC: Towards a political opening to resolve the conflict in the East? **

In the east of the Democratic Republic of Congo, marked by persistent violence, the call for a political opening of carbon Beni, co -founder of the Citizen Filimbi movement, presents itself as a hope of change. By pleading for an inclusive political approach, engaging all actors, including marginalized communities, Beni offers a strategy in three components: diplomatic, political and citizen. While diplomacy is crucial to sending external influences, internal dialogue could lead to more equitable governance. Inspired by examples like the peace process in Colombia, the DRC could place the voices of those who live the conflict at the center of discussions. Faced with sanctions against Rwanda, Beni evokes the need for innovative and incentive solutions rather than punitive. In the end, the creation of a real democracy, both in DRC and in Rwanda, and the support of civil society actors are essential to open the way to a peaceful future, rooted in sovereignty and national cohesion.

** Kinshasa: a military hearing that makes the Congolese political balance wobble **
