'We have lots of questions' - Belgium delays Rwanda World Championships visit due to security concerns
Briefly

from cyclingnews.com5 days ago
The Belgian Cycling Federation has postponed its reconnaissance trip to Rwanda amid escalating conflicts in Goma, DRC. BCF officials express serious concerns over rider safety and accommodation issues, especially given the proximity of violence in Goma to Kigali, where the 2025 Road World Championships are set to occur. Plans for the imminent Tour of Rwanda are also in jeopardy due to safety considerations. Belgian teams are monitoring the situation as troops are deployed at the Rwanda-DRC border to maintain security as tensions rise in the region.
"We have lots of questions," a top BCF official, Nathalie Clauwaert, told Dernière Heure, "and we're not the only ones."
