US Mediates Congo Peace Deal, Predictably Ignores Rwanda's Violations
When Al-Monitor reports Congolese President Tshisekedi accusing Rwanda of violating a US-mediated peace deal, it's framed as fresh news (Source: Al-Monitor). What the article skips is the US's long-standing, unwavering support for Rwanda, making its 'mediation' ring hollow. This isn't a surprise; Rwanda's alleged proxies, like the M23 rebels, have destabilized eastern Congo for years, enriching
Kigali through illicit mineral trade while the US quietly maintains its military and financial backing for Paul Kagame's regime. One might wonder if 'peace deal' is just another euphemism for 'US imprimatur without actual accountability.' The US State Department, for instance, has long offered military training and aid to Rwanda (Source: U.S. State Department fact sheets), even as UN reports
detail Rwanda’s involvement in Congo. How many 'peace deals' must be violated before 'mediation' becomes 'complicity'?
