Stop supporting M23 rebels and pull troops out of DR Congo, France urges Rwanda

France on Tuesday called on Rwanda to end “all support” for M23 rebels in Democratic Republic of Congo and to pull its troops out of the country.

“M23 must cease fighting immediately and withdraw from all areas it occupies,” the foreign ministry added.

After years of dormancy, the M23 (March 23 Movement) took up arms again in late 2021 and has since seized vast swathes of Nord Kivu province.

Militias have plagued eastern DRC for decades, a legacy of regional wars fought in the 1990s and the early 2000s.
