LIVE: DR Congo to Dump France? Angry Tshisekedi Walks Out of Macron's Summit | Firstpost Africa
France might just be on the cusp of putting its diplomatic relations at stake with DR Congo. In an embarrassing moment for the French, DR Congo’s President Felix Tshisekedi walked out of the French-speaking countries’ summit held in France over the weekend after President Emmanuel Macron’s opening speech failed to mention the conflict in the east of DR Congo. Congo said it considers this omission as an attempt to appease Rwanda, a party it considers to be involved in the conflict in the east. While French President Macron called for the resumption of political processes between the parties, the summit did not see any agreement between Congo and Rwanda. With DR Congo now angry, how will France balance its relations with the two French-speaking countries that are also mineral-rich? Watch now to know more.

Macron has lost a lot of respect from African leaders. It's time for France to pack up their bags and leave Africa alone

[@mokulyoe6959]

He shouldn’t be there. African conflict should be adjudicated by Africans not a stranger to African ways.

[@Racine44]

By the way, dear journalist, you said that DRC did not respond yet to Rwanda’s accusation but there was on the same week te foreign minister of DRC on bbc tv and she responded on that malicious Rwanda’s accusation. Just search it and you will find it.
