Pas de clause de cessation du statut des réfugiés rwandais en RDC

Pas de clause de cessation du statut des réfugiés rwandais en RDC

Kigali: Le gouvernement congolais a annoncé vendredi 21 juin à Kigali (Rwanda) que la clause de cessation du statut des réfugiés rwandais en RDC ne sera pas appliquée au 30 juin, comme le demandait le gouvernement rwandais.

C'était à l'issue de la 3e tripartite RDC-Rwanda-HCR. Pour la RDC, l'application au 30 juin 2013 de cette clause, qui impliquerait la perte du statut de réfugiés des exilés rwandais en RDC, serait précipitée.

Les trois délégations ont élaboré un chronogramme qui va consister en la sensibilisation, l'identification, et l'enregistrement de ces réfugiés.

Ensuite, viendra l'étape de l'obtention de leur intention de retour, puis l'application d'un plan de rapatriement.

Elles se sont aussi convenues d'un échange permanant du contenu des messages de sensibilisation par voies diplomatiques, ainsi que du partage progressif des données sur le profil des candidats au rapatriement volontaire. (Fin)

PRETORIA- South African troops have begun deploying to the Democratic Republic of Congo's volatile east as part of a special United Nations brigade to battle armed rebels, a junior minister said on Friday.

"South African troops are on their way to the DRC now," deputy foreign minister Ebrahim Ebrahim told reporters.
South Africa has pledged 1,345 soldiers to the first-ever offensive United Nations brigade.

Tanzania and Malawi are also part of the 3,000-strong force, which began deploying to Goma on May 13.

"The Tanzanians are already on the ground," said Ebrahim.

Troubled region
The eastern Congo has been the scene of intense fighting between the Congolese army and the M23 rebels, an armed group launched by Tutsi former soldiers who mutinied in April 2012.

-“The root cause of the Rwandan tragedy of 1994 is the long and past historical ethnic dominance of one minority ethnic group to the other majority ethnic group. Ignoring this reality is giving a black cheque for the Rwandan people’s future and deepening resentment, hostility and hatred between the two groups.”

-« Ce dont j’ai le plus peur, c’est des gens qui croient que, du jour au lendemain, on peut prendre une société, lui tordre le cou et en faire une autre ».

-“The hate of men will pass, and dictators die, and the power they took from the people will return to the people. And so long as men die, liberty will never perish.”

-“I have loved justice and hated iniquity: therefore I die in exile.

-“The price good men pay for indifference to public affairs is to be ruled by evil men.”
