In an interview with France 24, Patrick Muyaya, Minister of Communication and Media of the Democratic Republic of Congo, discusses at length the arrest, Tuesday by the Congolese intelligence services, of Salomon Kalonda, close advisor to the opponent Moïse Katumbi. According to him, it is the oppositions that are fueling violence across the country, six months before the general elections. The minister implicates Moïse Katumbi, stressing that he never dares to criticize Rwandan President Paul Kagame. It also calls for France sanctions against Rwanda and confirms that the force of East African states deployed in the east of the country will leave in the coming weeks.
