National Dialogue: Peter Kazadi Excludes AFC/M23 from Discussions, Advocates for Sacred Union Against 'Foreign Occupation'

Peter Kazadi, a member of UDPS and former Deputy Prime Minister, excluded AFC/M23 from the national dialogue, stating that the crisis in Eastern DRC is caused by Rwanda and armed groups. He emphasized that the dialogue should address the Congolese political class and civil society, not the conflict actors. Kazadi described the situation in the East as foreign occupation, rejecting any interpretation as an internal political crisis.
