| DR Congo president compares Rwanda's Paul Kagame to Hitler |
| 2023-12-10 |
| [AFRICANEWS] On the campaign trail in the troubled east of his country, the Democratic Republic of Congo, President Félix Tshisekedi on Friday compared his Rwandan counterpart Paul Kagame to Adolf Hitler and his "expansionist aims". "I'm going to address Rwandan President Paul Kagame and tell him this: since he wanted to behave like Adolf Hitler by having expansionist aims (in the DRC), I promise to end up like Adolf Hitler," declared Félix Tshisekedi, to applause from the crowd, at a rally in Bukavu, capital of South Kivu. Along with North Kivu and Ituri, South Kivu is one of the eastern provinces of the DRC that has been plagued for almost 30 years by the violence of armed groups, many of them inherited from the wars that bloodied the region between 1990 and 2000. Relations with neighboring Rwanda have been tense ever since, reaching a climax two years ago with the resurgence in North Kivu of the M23 ("March 23 Movement") rebellion, which, supported by Kigali according to many sources, has seized large swathes of the province. |

| #2 It's odd to me that no one compares these people to Stalin, who killed more Russians than the Nazis. Or Pol Pot, Mao, Ho Chi Minh, or any other Commie Rat Bastards. |
