The European Union is blaming Rwanda, again, and the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), for ignoring proposals of regional peace initiatives even as Kinshasa’s government forces battle the M23 rebel movement.
A statement issued on Tuesday said Rwanda, the DRC and the M23 should adhere to regional peace processes and lay down arms.
