Le Potentiel: US Sanctions Against Gustave Kubwayo and John Imani Nzenze

The United States has imposed sanctions against Gustave Kubwayo, a commander of the FDLR, and John Imani Nzenze, an intelligence leader of the M23. The Trump administration states its determination to enforce the Washington Accords and the Doha Framework. These sanctions are seen as a strong political signal to demonstrate US neutrality and increase pressure on armed groups. According to Infos 27, Kubwayo is accused of ethnic violence, child soldier recruitment, and sexual violence.
