"Peace Is Dead": Analyst Slams Tshisekedi, Says Congo Must Restructure | Firstpost Africa

Speaking to Firstpost, African affairs expert Dr. David Matsanga delivers a stark warning on the escalating crisis in the Democratic Republic of Congo. He says the fall of Uvira proves that President Trump's ceasefire framework is now meaningless, insisting that true peace will only come when Congo is restructured and granted genuine statehood. Matsanga claims African leaders have spent decades signing "pieces of paper" that fix nothing, while the real root cause—statehood—remains ignored. He sharply criticises President Félix Tshisekedi, calling him the biggest obstacle to peace and accusing him of prioritising minerals and foreign deals over dialogue with rebels or the Congolese people.
