[AfricaRealities.com] Rwanda: Kagame & Mushikiwabo Desperate as FDLR / UN Plans Vicissitudes

 


Kagame & Mushikiwabo Desperate as FDLR / UN Plans Vicissitudes

In Summary: Kagame is isolated as the regional leaders disagree on the FDLR Strategy
Kagame bought TL-50 air defense missiles from China which prompts him to threaten the region, but have never been tested
Inyenyeri news has obtained reliable information that President Kagame's impatience on what Kigali calls flushing out FDLR is growing thinner and thinner.  His Foreign Affairs microphone Louise Mushikawabo briefed the international media that Kigali will not hesitate to take unilateral decision against the FDLR which Kigali sees as a threat to its national security.

Inyenyeri news had earlier learnt that President Kagame sold his unilateral plan to President Museveni of Uganda who categorically in Private warned Kagame that unilateral attack to a sovereign country in the pretext of flushing out FDLR will be disastrous for Rwanda and might set fire on the whole region.
This disagreement on how to deal with the FDLR prompted the South African President Jacob Zuma to fly to Uganda on 21 Dec. to talk to his Ugandan counterpart to defuse the rising tensions in the region and around the Kigali unilateral deployment of its troops in the neighbouring Congo.

We have also reliable information that the idea of using the East African Regional Standby Force which Kigali thought to rely on to disarm FDLR rebels in the eastern Democratic Republic of Congo, was not supported by all the members of the East African Community.
EA Standby force
The United Republic of Tanzania being the biggest donor of the Intervention Brigade that flushed out the M23 a rebel proxy force of Kigali regime is threatening retaliatory consequences if Kigali unilaterally attacks its vast neighbor.
Kigali regime suffered another setback when recently the Belgium government froze Euros 50 M as a supplementary budget for its poor democratic performance. Kagame has been heard on many occasions denouncing aid with strings attached, with this blow to his budget by Rwanda traditional donor might prompt other donor countries to follow suit.
Inyenyeri has learnt that the major reason for South African President Jacob Zuma's surprise visit to Dares Salaam and Kampala earlier this week, was the rising tension between Kigali and Congo on how to deal with FDLR.
Congo is the home of different armed groups that threaten the security of its neighbours , however, Rwanda has been all the time opportunistically exploited this situation to deploy its proxy armed groups which have not only looted Congo minerals , but has also caused the most horrific atrocities on the Congolese people.
The United Nations  Mapping report estimates the number of people killed by Kigali forces and its proxy armed forces to six million(6), without counting the cost of internally displaced and those who have fled to the neighboring countries. The intervention brigaded force that flushed out M23 is composed of Malawian and South African forces, this force was very instrumental in the short and precise defeat of the M23 the Kagame notorious armed group that has raped women and killed Congolese innocent children for almost Two decades.
Although  the Security Council on which Rwanda is one of the non-permanent member gave Jan.21,2015 the Forces Démocratiques de Libération du Rwanda (FDLR),the deadline to surrender, demobilise and renounce  what Kigali calls its genocide ideology or an international force would be brought in, has been very reluctant to support Kigali's unilateral decision to re invade its vast neighbour.
Kagame and his senior officials have been issuing contradictory information were they say FDLR is weak and is not security threatening, on another occasion they say its security threat to its national security, this would be one of the reasons why  the region and international community don't support the Kigali argument because it has always used this ticket to buy the international community sympathy on all the occasions that Kagame has either invaded Congo or used proxy forces to destabilise Congo.
The other armed group is Ugandan rebel group Allied Democratic Forces (ADF) which Kampala accuses of waging an armed rebellion against the government of President Museveni. Paradoxically the Uganda government has not on any single day attacked its neighbour without diplomatic agreement. It's for this reason, that President Museveni who is now a close ally to President Kagame does not like to look in public as opposed to the Kagame idea of invading Congo again, but many believe that in private he has warned his former student (Kagame) that attacking Congo alone might be the beginning of  the end his political career.
President Museveni being a good student of history knows very well the demise of president Id Amin who in 1978 made a big mistake by attacking the United Republic of Tanzania, President Museveni is worried that history might repeat itself given that Tanzania is a member of the Southern Africa Development Community (SADC), with close ties to South Africa. Indeed, the bad blood between President Jakaya Kikwete and Rwanda's President Paul Kagame, might be a precursor to an all-out war in the region.
Political analysts say Zuma's mission to Kampala was to persuade his Ugandan counterpart to use his influence in the region to warn Kagame that the road his taking might be bumpy and dusty. Indeed, the misuse of the East African combat units under the East African Standby Forces (EASF) would be against the spirit and the intention of keeping peace in the region.
It is said EASF, mandated by the African Union's Peace and Security Council, is itching to attack the negative forces in eastern DRC, particularly the FDLR, following the UNSC's verdict that the group will not meet the deadline to fully demobilise.
"Since July 2, no further voluntary surrenders of the members of the FDLR have happened and the FDLR have failed to deliver on their public promise to voluntarily demobilise. Only substantial progress towards the full demobilisation called for by the region and committed to by the FDLR could justify further reprieve from military action against the FDLR," the UNSC said
Despite the African Union Peace and Security warning on the failure of FDLR demobilisation, has also warned that Kigali's unilateral invasion is not only catastrophic but also harbours other ultra-motives which the African body is shared by the United Nations Security Council and by even the Kigali traditional allies like US A and  UK.
The Inyenyeri news has further learnt that in the meeting between Presidents Zuma and Museveni, it was agreed that a quick mini-summit be held to "first consult Angolan President José Eduardo dos Santos on his position for this deployment."
Museveni would then carry the position of the ICGLR chairman to his counterparts Kenya's President Uhuru Kenyatta and Rwanda's Kagame, on whether to proceed with or suspend the onslaught on the FDLR. However, the Rwandan President has been crisscrossing the Angolan Capital with intention of bringing the Angolan president on board.   The Angolan Head of State is the chairman of the 12-member state regional peace and security pact, the International Conference of the Great Lakes Region (ICGLR) comprising Angola, DRC, Rwanda, Uganda and Tanzania. The other members are Burundi, Kenya, Sudan, South Sudan, Congo Brazzaville, the Central African Republic and Zambia. Political analysts have argued that Angola has more political and economic interests in Congo than in Rwanda.
It would therefore be very difficult for Kagame to pull Dos Santos to his side and those who know very well President, he couldn't be a reliable partner of Kagame, and this would put Kagame in more to isolation.
 
Joseph Ruhumuriza.

Nous voulons aider les peuples de la région des Grands Lacs à mieux comprendre leurs droits, notamment leurs droits humains, leur droit au développement, leur droit à la dignité, à la sécurité, au bien-être et à une vie meilleure. À travers nos contenus, nous cherchons également à rappeler aux décideurs, aux institutions publiques, aux acteurs régionaux et internationaux, ainsi qu’aux responsables politiques, leur devoir de transparence, de responsabilité et de redevabilité envers les populations qu’ils prétendent servir. Notre objectif est de contribuer à une culture de vérité, de justice, de participation citoyenne et de protection égale pour tous les peuples africains.

Why We Exist

Many abuses facing African people are committed by African states, ruling elites, armed groups, military forces and security services. But these abuses are often sustained by international silence, Western lobbying, trade interests, migration deals, mineral access, diplomatic partnerships and unequal global accountability. Africa Realities Media exposes that system.

Lived Experience Matters

Survivors, displaced communities, refugees, families affected by repression, journalists, activists, women, young people and diaspora voices are not passive subjects. They are knowledge holders. Their experiences must shape policy, advocacy, journalism and public debate. The people closest to injustice are often closest to the solutions.

Our Principle

Africa Realities Media is rooted in one principle: African lives deserve equal truth, equal justice and equal protection.

Disgusting Reports On How African & Indonesian Women Dry Their VAGINA With Sand & Bleach To Make Sex Pleasurable For Men

Share 64   3   Share 3   1   Tweet 64 Women mostly in South and Central Africa, and Indonesia are carrying out a horrific practice known as  ‘ Dry Sex’  which not only leaves them in pain but at increased risk of HIV.  Dailymail  Report Dry sex is a practice where women reduce moisture in their vaginas in order to make intercourse more pleasurable for men. This according to reports can lead to cuts, sores and inflammation in the vagina, and increases the chance of a condom breaking. These factors in turn increase the chance of the women contracting sexually transmitted diseases including HIV. It is borne out of a cultural belief that men find sex more pleasurable if a woman’s vagina is dry, and that men will reject women whose vaginas have been  ‘stretched out’  by sex. To achieve dryness, women insert, chalk, sand, pulverized rock, herbs, paper or sponges before sex, according to journalist Ms Syfret, who has reported o...

[RwandaLibre] The Paul Kagame Doctrine After 20 Years

  http://www.inyenyerinews.org/amakuru-2/the-paul-kagame-doctrine-after-20-years/ African leaders have just concluded a mini summit in Luanda, Angola, to discuss the conflict in DRC and the diplomatic showdown between South Africa and Rwanda. It is reported, as usual, that a "Luanda Declaration" was signed, and President Zuma and President Kagame "agreed" to talk to "resolve" the impasse between their two countries. The latest quarrel between South Africa and Rwanda is due to the assassination of Colonel Patrick Karegeya in South Africa on 31/12/2013 and another attempted assassination on General Kayumba Nyamwasa a couple of weeks ago. Is this new ground for hope, or it is the usual diplomatic hype, postponing the problem to a later date? This writer firmly believes it is the latter. A good foreign policy champions, defends and protects a country's ( read people's) national interests. It seeks friends and...

[RwandaLibre] Re: (pour Madame Vidal) : « Le Rwanda est stable, mais à quel prix ? »

  Mme Vidal La première caractéristique d'un blanc menteur c'est de faire comme si la tragédie rwandaise avait commencé le 6 Avril 1994, et de chercher les preuves là où elles ne sont pas, c'est-à-dire au détour de petites phrases prononcées par des personnes qui ne maîtrisent pas la langue, qui étaient enflammées ou qui sont malmenées par leurs interrogateurs. Quand vous parlez de planification du génocide, vous oubliez ceux à qui il a profité et qui avant tout le monde ont commis des exactions contre la population civile. La rancœur accumulée par les hutus contre les tutsis a été notamment été favorisée par le nettoyage ethnique opéré par le FPR dans les régions de Byumba et Ruhengeri, ce qui a eu pour résultat, un million de réfugiés entassés aux portes de Kigali. Parler du génocide et omettre de parler de cette situation est un mensonge par omission. Disons comme vous l'affirmez que l'attentat n'a...

Why Africa Realities Media Is Different

Africa Realities Media speaks to Africa and to the developed world. Many abuses facing African people are committed by African states and ruling elites, but they are often protected by international silence, lobbying, public relations, trade interests, migration deals and unequal global accountability. While governments pay lobbyists to present a good image abroad, ordinary African people continue to face violence, hunger, disease, poverty, repression and exclusion. We challenge the normalisation of African suffering and demand equal truth, equal justice and equal protection.

Pourquoi Africa Realities Media est différent?

Africa Realities Media s’adresse à l’Afrique et au monde développé. De nombreux abus subis par les peuples africains sont commis par des États africains et des élites dirigeantes, mais ils sont souvent protégés par le silence international, le lobbying, les relations publiques, les intérêts commerciaux, les accords migratoires et une responsabilité mondiale inégale. Tandis que des gouvernements paient des lobbyistes pour présenter une bonne image à l’étranger, des Africains ordinaires continuent de faire face à la violence, à la faim, aux maladies, à la pauvreté, à la répression et à l’exclusion. Nous contestons la normalisation de la souffrance africaine et exigeons une vérité égale, une justice égale et une protection égale.

Policy and Systems Change

Our work is designed to trigger debate, discomfort and action. We do not only expose injustice; we work for policy and systems change. We want governments and institutions to address the root causes of inequality, disadvantage, discrimination, exclusion and barriers affecting African people. We believe lasting change must be shaped by people with lived experience.

Exposing Injustice in Africa

Africa Realities Media is an independent African accountability platform based in London. We report, analyse and challenge the systems that shape African suffering, silence African victims and protect abusive power. We are not here to repeat diplomatic language. We are here to ask the questions that are often avoided: why are African deaths treated as normal? Why are African victims given less urgency? Why are governments that imprison, exclude, displace or kill their own people protected when they serve powerful international interests?

Africanews

Africa Realities Media gives space to writers, researchers, experts, activists, community voices, campaigners, analysts and people with lived experience who want to contribute thoughtful, responsible and courageous content about the changes needed in the region, as well as the political, economic, cultural and social African realities that are often ignored, minimised or misrepresented. Our articles and videos aim to encourage debate, raise awareness, stimulate critical thinking and support reflection. We seek to help people in the Great Lakes Region understand their rights to human rights, development and wellbeing, while also encouraging decision-makers to be more transparent, responsive and accountable.
