La malhonnêteté de l'Union européenne envers la RDC :
Comment l'accord européen sur les minerais avec le Rwanda récompense le pillage, alimente les conflits et sape la souveraineté africaine.
Introduction : La richesse d'un continent, la trahison d'un autre
Depuis plus de trois décennies, la République démocratique du Congo se trouve au cœur de l'une des crises les plus violentes, les plus meurtrières et les plus méconnues au monde. Bien que possédant certaines des ressources minérales les plus précieuses de la planète — indispensables à la technologie moderne et à la transition énergétique mondiale — le pays reste ravagé par la guerre, l'ingérence étrangère, les déplacements massifs, le pillage économique et une urgence humanitaire sans fin. La tragédie congolaise ne s'explique pas par le manque de ressources, mais par leur abondance. La richesse du Congo a attiré des acteurs prédateurs, voisins comme internationaux, et a alimenté une économie parallèle où la souffrance de millions de personnes est silencieusement convertie en profit pour des gouvernements, des entreprises et des groupes armés.

EU Dishonesty Toward the DRC: How Europe's Minerals Agreement With Rwanda Rewards Theft, Fuels Conflict and Undermines African Sovereignty
Introduction: A Continent's Wealth, A Continent's Betrayal
For more than three decades, the Democratic Republic of Congo has been the epicentre of one of the world's most violent, deadly and underreported crises. Despite holding some of the planet's most valuable mineral resources—minerals essential to modern technology and the global green transition—Congo remains a country ravaged by conflict, foreign interference, mass displacement, economic plunder and a humanitarian emergency. The tragedy is not rooted in scarcity, but in abundance. Congo's wealth has consistently attracted predatory interests, both neighbouring and international, and has generated a shadow economy in which the suffering of millions is quietly converted into profit for governments, corporations and armed groups.
It is within this context that the European Union's decision to sign an agreement with the Rwandan government intended to secure the supply of critical materials used in smartphones and electric cars must be understood. The agreement, promoted as part of the EU's strategic plan to diversify supply chains and reduce reliance on China, was announced as a partnership for development, transparency and sustainability. Yet the evidence available to the EU before the agreement was signed painted a very different picture. Rwanda is not a major producer of these minerals. It is, and has been for decades, a central redistribution hub for minerals smuggled from the Democratic Republic of Congo. These minerals are extracted under conditions of extreme violence, often by militias or rebel groups, transported illegally across the border, laundered through Rwanda's certification system and exported to international markets as supposedly clean, conflict-free products.
