DRC: Is ex-President Joseph Kabila's return a game changer? DW 05/27/2025
Briefly

Joseph Kabila's recent criticisms of President Tshisekedi's government, including the stripping of his immunity, indicate a tumultuous political landscape in the DRC. Kabila's presence in Goma, claimed by rebel groups, raises concerns that it could disrupt ongoing mediation efforts. Political figures in the government have intensified attacks on Kabila, with claims challenging his legitimacy. Experts advocate for dialogue with Kabila, arguing that sidelining him is detrimental to national unity, highlighting the need for cooperation among political leaders for the nation's benefit.
Kabila's re-emergence in a rebel-held area could jeopardize existing mediation efforts spearheaded by religious leaders.
We encourage the authorities to be able to approach Kabila and that he too be open to talks. We believe that the general interest comes first.
