DRC: Paris asks Rwanda to “cease all support for the M23 and withdraw from Congolese territory”. “France is very concerned by the situation in eastern Congo, in North Kivu and in particular around Goma and Saké.

The attacks on the territorial integrity of the DRC and the situation of civilian populations are unacceptable”, said the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The M23 is a rebel group composed mainly of Tutsis. He took up arms again at the end of 2021 after several years of sleep.
