Because all the EAC countries are accomplices of the Tutsis/Rwanda/M23. This terrorist group gets its weapons from an arms dealer who lives in Kenya. We congolese know that very well.

[@mbakunkasa3784]

The problem is that the UN is there to assist imperialist countries loot the minerals in East DRC, not to accomplish its real mission .For instance , a few months ago the SG of UN Antonio Gutteres said that the M23 militia have more weapons than the UN blue helmets.Can you believe him ? How a smal group of militia which cannot even buy 10 transport trucks can be more powerful than 10 000 UN blue helmets .

[@renzeusoya5828]

What, you really think other nations should risk their soldiers getting shot up and killed solving the problem you should be solving by yourselves? And for free? As long as DRC keeps looking to outsiders for help, they won't win.

[@DADAMANism]

DRC is the one that invited SADC. It knows it’s troops are effective. East African countries are the ones who have economic interests in DRC. Hence M23 are Rwanda Proxies.

[@HilariousKamwaya]

Good question.

[@tshepomotshepana7635]

The main issue here is why is the AU not creating a central command center secondly why is the AU not meeting with all sides and actually come with a common solution. As an African I understand the reasoning of the M23 rebels concerns but the media from all groups always interviews the government instead the M23 rebels

[@APConsept]

I am sure you are a rebel yourself maybe you know who is the M23 if not Rwanda proxy

[@kaban-ji]

There is a government, which called for order. There were conditions and terms before any negotiations. All grouod respected, but M23 refused. They are the ONLY ones who wish to be intergrated in the army again as generals and etc. They have used this way to infiltrate the army and the government system of DRC with Rwandan generals. Remember the chief of the Rwandan army himself made himself chief if the Congolese army. Kenya has welcomed Somaliens. It still does not give Somaliens the right to become Kenyan generals or ministers, with or without training. The attitude of President Tshisekedi is right for Congolese people, although tough. Soonner or later the "Ubwenge" will reach its ends, but let us accept to pay the ultimate price once and for all. Many countries in war invite other forces, when tbey feel limited. Nothing is wrong with the calling of forces. It ONLY needs coordination and high precision in actions.

[@antonynyathi7046]

They may have genuine concerns,yes, but who is funding their violence to kill women and children!M23 may not be a problem, but their funders are a problem, they are exploiting M23's genuine concerns to their advantage!

The introduction is already wrong. There are SADC forces with offensive mission. DRC did seek help offensively. Peace keeping is more defensive. The EAC has not succeeded to desarm the rebel group of M23 and this is the reason why DRC has started to look for alternatives.

All lies you’re spewing. Tribalist lies it’s your government in Kinshasa that is corrupt not respecting the agreements. Look at how messy your country is so massive with so many resources but you claim that m23 caused all this. M23 are fighting for their rights and land in the east. Fighting against corrupted FARDC that mix with mali tia groups like FDLR to kill congolese Tutsi and hema. You will not make progress talking nonsense never holding your corrupt government to hand. Always blaming others. You will forever be in misery and the failed state of africa. Tribalism and jealousy towards rwandaphones won’t solve your mess . SADC won’t solve it neither will the UN.

[@100yearsofsolitudful]

First i was surprised why Congo joined EAC, because some of EAC countries are Congo's enemies (Rwanda & Uganda). Secondly Comgo inviting the EAC to help them combat the M23, but M23 is sponsored by some of the EAC countries. For me it didn't make sense and a lot of Congolese people were against it from day one. Kenya is a bit neutral, but Kenya is most likely to aside with Rwanda and Uganda, than with Congo.

Stop this divisive rhetoric and end the tribal discrimination, because that is the only way for Congo to achieve peace.
