🇨🇩🇫🇷 DR Congo citizens protest the upcoming visit of French leader

A few dozen Congolese demonstrated on Wednesday against the arrival of French President in the DRC.

Outside the French Embassy in Kinshasa, protesters chanted “Macron is an assassin” or “Macron get out”, some waving Russia flags. The group accused Emmanuel Macron of backing Rwanda which they hold responsible for growing insecurity in eastern DRC.

"We refuse the arrival of Emmanuel Macron the French president in our country. Since he is accompanying Rwanda the country that is slaughtering us, the country that is killing us day and night. It is he who supports Rwanda we do not want his arrival here in our Congo," demonstrators said.
