[Rwanda Forum] Why Are US Sanctions Not Working on Rwanda?

Why Are US Sanctions Not Working on Rwanda?

Why Paul Kagame Has Ignored US Sanctions and UN Resolution 2773

Between February 2025 and March 2026, the United States Treasury imposed two rounds of sanctions directly targeting Rwanda's war machine in eastern Congo: first James Kabarebe, Rwanda's Minister of State and the regime's principal liaison to M23, then the Rwanda Defence Force as an entity alongside four of its senior commanders. Every sanctioned individual remained operational. The RDF did not leave. This analysis examines why Washington's measures have failed to alter Rwanda's conduct — and why, in Kagame's own words, they are dismissed as the work of the 'just foolish'.

Pourquoi les sanctions américaines ne fonctionnent pas contre le Rwanda

Pourquoi Paul Kagame a ignoré les sanctions américaines et la Résolution 2773 du Conseil de sécurité de l'ONU

Entre février 2025 et mars 2026, le Trésor américain a imposé deux séries de sanctions ciblant directement la machine de guerre du Rwanda dans l'est du Congo : d'abord James Kabarebe, ministre d'État rwandais et principal intermédiaire du régime auprès du M23, puis les Forces de défense rwandaises en tant qu'entité, ainsi que quatre de leurs hauts responsables. Chacun des individus sanctionnés est demeuré en poste. Les FDR ne se sont pas retirées. Cette analyse examine pourquoi les mesures de Washington n'ont pas modifié la conduite du Rwanda — et pourquoi, selon les propres mots de Kagame, elles sont rejetées comme l'œuvre des « simplement stupides ».

[Rwanda Forum] Rwanda/RDC

Ariko  Abanayekongo tubashakaho iki? Ngaho twihaye kububakira, ngaho tubafitiye imbabazi kubarusha. Ikinyamakuru "Igihe" kiti u Rwanda rurimo gufasha Congo muri byinshi ariko dore ibyo barimo kudukorera. None se icyo kinyamakaru kiyobewe uko  Habyarimana yafashije Museveni mu  mu ntambara Museveni yarwanaga, nose hari icyo Habyarimana atakoze ngo umubano we na Museveni umere neza. Havuyemo iki. Kagame nawe ntiyagombye gutungurwa. Kugira umubano na Kisekedi, gufasha abaturage b'i Goma si ukugirana umubano n'abanye Congo bose, si ugufasha Congo yose. Biracyaza.  -- ________________________________________________________________ -Ushobora kohereza message yawe kuri : rwandaforum@googlegroups.com -Ushobora kwiyandikisha kuri iyo groupe wandikira: rwandaforum+subscribe@googlegroups.com -Ushobora kwikura kuri iyo groupe wandikira: rwandaforum+unsubscribe@googlegroups.com -Archives z'iyi groupe ushobora kuzisoma kuri: https://rwandaforumonline.blogs...
