How did the UK respond to Rwanda's military involvement in the Democratic Republic of Congo?
The UK summoned Rwanda's envoy to condemn advances made by the Rwanda-backed M23 armed group in the Democratic Republic of Congo. This diplomatic action followed M23 fighters and Rwandan troops seizing the city of Bukavu on Sunday. The UK's foreign ministry declared these advances an unacceptable violation of DRC's sovereignty and territorial integrity. They explicitly called for Rwanda to immediately withdraw all forces from Congolese territory, taking a firm stance against this military intervention and breach of international norms.
