Le Royaume-Uni avait pris la même décision fin février, pointant l’appui de l’armée rwandaise aux combattants du M23, qui mènent une offensive dans l’est de la RDC. Kigali a répliqué en demandant à Londres de lui verser le solde de l’accord avorté sur l’expulsion de migrants au Rwanda.
Germany and Canada have suspended aid to Rwanda due to its support of the M23 rebel group in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), following a similar decision by the UK. These countries condemn Rwanda's actions as a violation of the DRC's sovereignty and international law, demanding the withdrawal of Rwandan forces and cessation of support for M23. Rwanda has criticized these measures as unfair and ineffective, and is demanding the UK pay the balance of a previously abandoned migrant expulsion agreement.
