The conflict in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) has escalated drastically with the M23 rebel group seizing Goma, leading to mass displacement of civilians and a humanitarian crisis. Analysts suggest that Rwanda's support for M23 is less about defending Tutsi interests and more about territorial control over mineral-rich areas, echoing Russia's military strategies in Ukraine. The West, including the EU, has overlooked Rwanda's human rights abuses in favor of strategic partnerships, emphasizing mineral trade that perpetuates violence and potential ethnic strife.
The escalating conflict in the DRC has resulted in hundreds of thousands fleeing, highlighting the urgent humanitarian crisis exacerbated by the M23's strategic territorial pursuits.
Rwanda's backing of M23 reflects a complex web of ethnic tensions and geopolitical interests, reminiscent of historical conflicts like the drive for mineral resources.
