IN PARIS, TSHILOMBO PAYS CASH FOR HIS DIPLOMATIC INCONSISTENCIES AND GAMBLING: A POWER WITHOUT COURSE
1. First event: during the Francophone Games in Kinshasa, the government resulting from the controversial 2023 elections refuses to invite Louise Mushikiwabo, the Secretary General of the OIF, because of her Rwandan nationality. This is a serious mistake, because within the OIF, Mushikiwabo is not considered Rwandan but as an international civil servant.
2. Second event: in Djerba, Tunisia, Prime Minister Sama Lukonde refuses to participate in the family photo because of the presence of Paul Kagame, which reflects a diplomatic distancing.
3. Third event: At the summit on 4-5 October, Tshilombo adopted a completely different approach from his prime minister. He shook hands with Louise Mushikiwabo and posed for the family photo next to Paul Kagame. He attended Emmanuel Macron’s opening speech on 4 October and participated in the closed-door sessions on the morning of 5 October, but was inconsistent in boycotting the afternoon discussions.
These reversals and inconsistent attitudes raise questions about the foreign policy of the Kinshasa regime, which seems to be sailing without a clear direction.
The Tshilombo regime seems more focused on internal repression, with plots against the Constitution, the tracking of opponents, human rights violations, the misappropriation of public funds, and the silencing of dissenting voices, than on developing effective public policies to lift the people out of poverty or establish a coherent and internationally respected diplomacy.
The Congolese people are thus once again confronted with the incompetence of the regime. Although President Macron discussed the security situation in the east of the country, he especially insisted on the need for an inclusive dialogue with the opposition, both armed and political, as well as with civil society.
Tshilombo now faces a dilemma: engage in dialogue or relinquish the power he acquired through force and electoral fraud.
Only struggle liberates.
