Abstract:

In January, the M23 rebel group occupied Goma, the largest city in the eastern Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). The rebels are controlled by and are working for Rwanda, which is extracting valuable minerals in the region. The aim of Rwanda and M23 may be to overthrow the authorities in Kinshasa, and a number of countries, including South Africa, may become involved in the conflict. Pressure from foreign partners on Rwanda to end the intervention will be key to defusing the crisis.
