Editorial: Le Monde

• A three-year war has been waged between the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) and Rwanda, displacing nearly one and a half million people.
• The conflict has escalated following the break of a ceasefire and the failure of Angolan mediation.
• Rwanda's role in the conflict has been confirmed by the UN as effectively controlling and directing the M23.
• Rwanda controls much of the exploitation of rare minerals in eastern DRC, pointing to possible territorial expansion.
• The international community, including France, has condemned the offensive carried out by the M23, backed by Rwandan armed forces.
• No resolution to the conflict can be considered if the United States does not exert pressure on Rwanda.

Conclusion: The situation represents a clear conflict between two sovereign states, marked by foreign interference and the need for global intervention.
