The U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control imposed sanctions on a network working in coordination with the Rwandan-backed M23 to illegally smuggle minerals from eastern DRC to Rwanda. This action supports the historic U.S.-brokered Washington Accords for Peace and Prosperity signed by the leaders of the DRC and Rwanda. It reinforces their commitment to implement a Regional Economic Integration Framework designed to expand trade and investment, strengthen transparency across critical minerals supply chains, and lay the foundation for greater long-term economic opportunity throughout the region. home.treasury.gov/news/press…

Les États-Unis prennent de nouvelles mesures pour lutter contre les menaces qui pèsent sur la stabilité et la prospérité dans l’est de la République démocratique du Congo (RDC), en sanctionnant de hauts commandants de deux groupes armés précédemment désignés par les États-Unis, les Forces démocratiques de libération du Rwanda (FDLR) et le Mouvement du 23 mars (M23), soutenu par le Rwanda. L’administration Trump est fermement déterminée à faire en sorte que toutes les parties respectent les engagements qu’elles ont pris au titre des Accords de Washington pour la paix et la prospérité et du Cadre de Doha, et elle continuera d’employer tous les outils à sa disposition pour promouvoir une stabilité durable dans la région.

The Department of State is coordinating a comprehensive response to the Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) and Uganda.  Within 48 hours, the Department activated a response plan and mobilized an initial $13 million in foreign assistance for immediate response efforts, and we are leveraging the Department’s historic investment in OCHA pooled funds for the DRC and Uganda to ensure the rapid deployment of additional humanitarian assistance on the ground and close coordination with the UN system. American leadership remains indispensable in confronting global health threats.

.@USUNDeputy remarked that in turn, the Govt of the DRC must follow through on its commitments to immediately neutralize the FDLR, at least in the areas under its control. Addressing these long-standing security concerns is essential to breaking the cycle of mistrust that has fueled this conflict for decades.

The U.S. expressed that it is deeply disappointed by Rwanda’s continued escalation of the conflict, which constitutes a direct violation of its obligations under the Washington Accords. The U.S has reiterated its call for the immediate withdrawal of Rwandan troops. The sovereignty, territorial integrity, and political independence of the DRC must be respected.

Au lendemain des sanctions imposées contre le Rwanda, nous avons rencontré le Sénateur Ted Cruz @SenTedCruz @tedcruz, Président du Sous-Comité sur l’Afrique et la Politique de Santé Mondiale au sein de la Commission des Relations Étrangères du Sénat américain. Une paix durable en RDC sert directement les intérêts des États-Unis, notamment pour la mise en œuvre effective de l’accord stratégique US-Congo, la stabilité régionale et la sécurisation des partenariats économiques. Objectif : paix réelle, stabilité durable, justice pour les victimes. Notre voix porte. Nous restons mobilisés pour des résultats concrets.
