The Democratic Republic of Congo’s president has accused his predecessor, Joseph Kabila, who has taken charge of a rebellion in the country’s restive east, of being a Rwandan pawn.
Kabila this month joined forces with the Rwanda-backed M23 movement to take a direct role in an insurgency ravaging the DRC’s mineral-rich east, returning to the fray at a febrile time for Congolese politics.
Taking aim at the government in Kinshasa, the new Kabila-helmed Front for the Refoundation of the Nation (FRN) vowed to put “an end to tyranny by any means, including force”.
