The UN's IRIN news service is reporting a full spectrum of opinions on the recent Congolese-Rwandan military cooperation in DR Congo's East. Many analytical and normative opinions are reported, varied as required by the complexity of the Congolese conflict.
My own tuppence worth is on the high risk and potential returns the two sides have taken in the arrangement. Congo approves the entry of Rwandan troops, against whom they have been fighting directly or by proxy; Rwanda removes and detains the general who is perceived to have represented it loyally. It seems that the governments see no permanent friends or enemies, only permanent interests. I hope that this is the beginning of the war's end for the Congolese people.
