Ici je soutiens k les accords sécuritaires & miniers de 2021 entre la RDC & le Rwanda visaient à affirmer 1 autonomie régionale africaine, & k le récit d’« agression rwandaise » a été instrumentalisé pour protéger des intérêts occidentaux, surtout belges.

L'historien @basilediatezwa nous éclaire avec perspicacité et méthode sur la rhétorique de la "nationalité douteuse", ou la politisation d'exclusion des Tutsi du Congo, vielle rhétorique de haine, notamment depuis la loi de 1981, qui avait rendu les Tutsi congolais apatrides, et que le président Felix Tshisekedi re-convoque aujourd'hui depuis Bruxelles, en marge du #GlobalGateway2025 de l'@EU_Commission.

L'historien Basile Diatezwa dans cet extrait déconstruit:

1) le langage propagandiste de Kinshasa sur la supposée "nationalité douteuse" des Tutsi congolais et sur une soi-disant pratique "d'infiltration" par le Rwanda;

2) l'histoire de la violence et de l'exclusion vécues de manière systémique depuis 3 décennies par cette communauté marginalisée, qu'on présente comme "étrangère" et dont on bafoue les droits fondamentaux de manière systématique;

3) les griefs de la communauté tutsi congolaise poussée à l'exil depuis plus de 30 ans, et ainsi la raison pour laquelle cette communauté a dû prendre les armes... non pas "pour demander la nationalité congolaise, car ils sont Congolais", mais pour le retour dans leur pays depuis 30 ans d'exil dans des camps de réfugiés, pour vivre une vie sans exclusion et sans être la cible de haine et de violence en RDC.

Il ajoute qu'un état responsable doit protéger tous ses citoyens sans discrimination, et que la #RDC ne peut continuer à être dans une guerre permanente contre le Rwanda, mais doit au contraire créer les conditions pour une paix véritable et durable.

Le Président congolais, S.E. Félix Antoine Tshisekedi Tshilombo, ne manque vraiment pas de cynisme.

Il a armé, soutenu et financé les génocidaires rwandais FDLR, qu'il a même intégrés dans sa propre armée FARDC, en compagnie des Nyatura et autres milices ethnistes;

Il a créé une milice armée appelée "Wazalendo" à la quelle il a fourni argent, armes et munitions. Il a fermé les yeux lorsque cette milice a mis le feu, en compagnie des FDLR et des Nyatura, à plus de 300 maisons de Congolais Tutsi en octobre 2023 dans le village de Nturo, territoire de Masisi, province du Nord Kivu;

Il s'est tu lorsque que les Wazalendo ont lynché, brûlé vifs et cannibalisé plusieurs de ses propres officers FARDC, pour le simple crime d'être nés Tutsi;

Il a brillé par son silence lorsque des vidéos d'enfants, armés par cette même milice, ont circulé, et où l'on voit des adultes Wazalendo demander à ces enfants s'ils sont prêts à "tuer les Banyarwanda";

Il n'a rien dit lorsque les leaders Wazalendo ont donné dix jours aux Banyamulenge et autres Congolais Tutsi pour quitter le territoire de la RDC et "retourner chez eux au Rwanda";

Et ceci, sans mentionner les bombardements quotidiens de ses drones d'attaque contre les villages Banyamulenge à Minembwe dans les hauts plateaux.

Et après cela, il ose monter à la prestigieuse tribune des Nations unies à New York pour accuser autrui de génocide? Un simple miroir aurait fait l'affaire!

This is a statement from both ISÔKO_USA and Mahoro Peace Association @MahoroMpa raising great concerns about the participation of @NYCMayor as a panelist in the Event organized by the D.R.C. Mission to the UN, D.R.C., on September 22nd, 2025 in New York City.

This conference is intended to use wrongly the magic name of "genocide" and exclude to name the real victims of genocide in D.R.Congo, who we are , the Tutsi ethnic group in both North and South Kivu.
ONLY the Congolese of Tutsi are facing extermination as an ethnic group based on the 10 steps to determine the existence of the genocide in D.R.Congo.
NO other ethnic group has faced hate speech, dehumanization, and targeted killings based on who they are.

Even today, killings, hate speech, destruction of livelihood are going on in South Kivu with extremists militia group called "Wazalendo" financed and armed by the current government aimed to wipe out the Tutsi and Banyamulenge in their home country.

It is on behalf of all survivors of massacres across the D.R.Congo since 1990 who have been rescued by first the Clinton Administration in 2000, then Bush Administration in 2007, and their successors at the White House including the current administration of @realDonaldTrump.

We are grateful to the US government that has rescued more twenty thousand Congolese that were denied their citizenship since 1990’s because of their ethnical identity.

Many of our families are still leaving in refugee Camp in neighboring countries after more than 30 years in refugees and have hope that with the current negotiation’s led by the Qatar government, they will have a chance to get back in their home country.

New York City, September 19th, 2025

To: Honorable Eric Adams, Mayor of New York City, in New York City @NYCMayor
CC: - @SecRubio Honorable Mr. Marco Rubio, U.S. Secretary of State State Department, Washington, D.C.
- @US_SrAdvisorAF Mr. Massad Boulos, U.S. Senior Advisor for Africa State Department, Washington, D.C.

Subject: Grave concerns about your participation in the Event organized by the D.R.C. Mission to the UN, D.R.C., on September 22 in New York City.

Honorable Mr. Eric Adams,

We, the members of ISÔKO_USA and MAHORO PEACE ASSOCIATION, US based non-profit organizations representing American citizens from D.R.Congo of Congolese Tutsi ethnic group wish to express our grave concern about your participation to the event "Thirty Years of Armed Conflicts in the Democratic Republic of the Congo: Call for the Recognition of Forgotten or Ignored Genocides, for Truth and Justice" planned to be held on September 22, 2025 at Jay Conference in New York City.

The government of D.R.C. organizes this event, which has the full responsibility of the crimes committed against Congolese Tutsi/Banyamulenge, systematically targeted by state and non-state overnment-supported armed groups since the 1960s.

We are survivors of atrocities committed against us for who we are, having fled systemic persecution and killings, and having received no protection from the D.R.C. government.

Even today, government-supported militia armed groups continue to attack our community in eastern D.R.C, killing thousands of civilians, including women and children, burning our villages, destroying our livelihoods, and shelling planes delivering basic humanitarian aid essentially putting Banyamulenge villages in South Kivu under siege since 2017.

The same pattern of violence afflicts the Hema community in Ituri Province, where CODECO militias and the FARDC massacre thousands each year with total impunity.
Our legal representatives, the Collectif des avocats des parties civiles, have introduced several legal complaints in D.R.C. as well as in regional and international courts, including at the ICC and in the courts in Belgium, to denounce this campaign of ethnic cleansing against our community.

This event, as it is presented, uses the tools of persecution and inflammatory rhetoric against our community, which has put us at risk for decades, by reversing responsibility between victim and perpetrator.

It aims to blame the victim, the Congolese Tutsi, for the ethnic cleansing to which it is subjected. Thus, the D.R.C. government has engineered a false genocide, accusing our community of being responsible for our own persecution and crimes, to exonerate itself from its own responsibility.

The gravity of the situation is best reflected in a statement by the UN Special Representative to the Office on Genocide Prevention Ms. Alice W. Nderitu in November 30th, 2022 in which she established that: “indicators and triggers contained the UN Framework of Analysis for Atrocity Crimes were present in DRC including; dissemination of hate speech and absence of independent mechanisms to address it;
-Politicization of identity; proliferation of local militias and other armed groups across the country;
-Widespread and systematic attacks, including sexual violence, against especially the Congolese Tutsi based on their ethnicity and perceived allegiance with neighboring countries; and intergroup tensions.”

She added about the urgency of the situation by emphasizing that: “The abuses currently occurring in Eastern DRC, including the targeting of civilians based on their ethnicity or perceived affiliation to the warring parties, must be halted.

Our collective commitment not to forget past atrocities constitutes an obligation to prevent recurrence”. We urge you to reconsider your participation in this event, as your participation represents an official endorsement of the inflammatory rhetoric, the targeting campaign, and the crimes against Congolese Tutsi by the D.R.C. government.

This further puts our community at risk in Eastern D.R.C. at a time when the current U.S. administration in Washington, DC, and other international partners seek to appease the tensions in the region, to find a lasting solution to the D.R.C.’s long-standing conflict.

As survivors from the long-lasting crimes committed against our community in D.R.Congo, we are very grateful to the US administration that welcomed us since February 2000. Enclosed is a detailed report documenting a sample of these atrocities among thousands of cases.

@US_SrAdvisorAF we applaud for the release of all these prisoners most of them are prisoners of facies.

For the last 3 years, being or looking as #Tutsi or having a so-called #Rwandan #looking has been labeled as #foreigners #invaders #infiltrators #spy or #spy in your home country.
Since 1960's the local and national leaders in D.R.Congo has ignited hate speech using the militia, today, #Wazalendo to expel, kill all those so called #Invaders #foreigners #Rwandans because of their cultural and linguistic origin in Rwanda.

Since 2022, our organization has several times petitioned in our correspondence sent the Congolese government and all human rights organizations for fair trial and release of the innocent prisoners.

See attached some of the list of these prisoners as compiled on August 20th, 2023, by our sister organization in Goma.

Two years after, this list of 183 prisoners have increased tremendously, and we applaud the coming signing agreement to release them by the government of Kinshasa. Also, we call for the rule of law in our country where each individual should be facing fair trial for crimes committed not based on facial and ethnical identity.

Special thanks to @US_SrAdvisorAF for your dedication to help our country to retrieve a long-lasting peace after more than 35 years of ethnical driven violence.

Unfortunately, as we can see this week in #Uvira, the government is backing the extremist militia #Wazalendo to refuse a government appointee.
