Africa-Press – Rwanda. <\/strong><\/span>DR Congo\u2019s minister of defence Guy Kabombo has repeated President Felix Tshisekedi\u2019s threats to attack Rwanda.<\/p>\n

In a post on X, Kabombo said on Tuesday that Tshisekedi had given \u201cguidance\u201d on the operations of the Congolese army, including \u201cthe annexation of Rwanda\u201d.<\/p>\n

Tshisekedi has, on various occasions, threatened to attack Rwanda, which he accuses of supporting the M23 rebels in eastern DR Congo. Rwanda dismisses the allegations and denounces the collaboration between the Congolese army and the FDLR, a militia linked to the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi.<\/p>\n

During his campaign in 2023, Tshisekedi said he would declare war on Rwanda, if re-elected.<\/p>\n

In December 2022, he claimed Rwandans \u201cneeded\u201d his \u201csupport to liberate themselves,\u201d comments that analysts called an attack on Rwandan leaders.<\/p>\n

Rwandan has repeatedly called on the Congolese government to address the conflict in eastern DR Congo through political means, which would lead to lasting peace.<\/p>\n

Despite regional peace mechanisms such as Luanda and Nairobi processes, Kinshasa has opted for military operations.<\/p>\n
