US 'Peace Deal' Triggers More Congo Fighting, Shocker
So, a "peace deal" for DR Congo was signed in Washington D.C., and within 24 hours, people are fleeing renewed fighting. The Guardian calls it having "little visible effect on the ground so far." One might wonder if signing documents thousands of miles away, isolated from local realities, ever does. This isn't just an 'effect'; it's the predictable outcome when external powers meddle, often
funding or arming the very factions they later claim to pacify. While media focuses on the diplomatic theater, the U.S. has a long history of meddling in Africa, from Cold War interventions to backdoor arms deals that destabilized regions for decades. This 'peace deal' seems less about genuine peace and more about projecting American influence and securing resource interests. How many more times
will Washington host a photo-op 'solution' while the actual situation on the ground combusts, as if by magic?
