Summary :

The security situation in eastern DRC remains a persistent challenge. President Tshisekedi highlights the weaknesses of the Congolese authorities and the role of the Rwandan army in regional instability. Despite repeated attacks, the president assures the population that Goma will not fall. However, these attacks have devastating consequences for the local populations, and the authorities urgently need to strengthen security in the region. Human rights violations are also alarming and require concrete measures to end impunity. Addressing these complex issues is essential to ensuring the stability and well-being of the Congolese people.

In this article, the President of the Democratic Republic of Congo, Félix Tshisekedi, declares that the military option against the aggression of Rwanda and the armed group M23 will be used as a last resort, after diplomatic efforts. During a television broadcast, Tshisekedi stressed the importance of diplomacy while strengthening the defense and security forces. He also expresses his determination to find a peaceful solution but warns that the military option is not excluded if necessary. The pragmatic position of the president highlights his desire to avoid an escalation of the conflict while protecting the interests of his country.

The end of the FCC-CACH coalition marks a major turning point in the Congolese political landscape. This alliance formed during the democratic alternation between Tshisekedi and Kabila did not survive the tensions and differences in power. Tshisekedi has decided to form a new coalition, the Sacred Union of the Nation, to support his social project. This rupture represents an opportunity for peaceful change and for the union of political forces in the interest of the country. However, many challenges remain, including judicial reform and security. Despite the difficulties, Tshisekedi remains determined to change Congo for the better.

The inhabitants call for the installation of a military position in Livano, the main crossing point of the ADF, to reinforce security. It is essential that the authorities take strong measures to fight terrorism and guarantee the safety of all citizens. Effective coordination of security forces and international cooperation are needed to counter these cross-border terrorist groups. The Musandaba tragedy is a reminder of the instability and violence that reigns in parts of the DRC, and only determined action can bring peace and security.
