The leader of Democratic Republic of Congo on Monday accused Rwanda of delaying implementation of a peace deal that Kinshasa and Kigali signed in Washington in June.

“Rwanda pretends to have withdrawn its troops but in reality, Rwanda troops continue to be present on Congolese soil and to support the M23,” President Felix Tshisekedi said, referring toa Rwandan-backed armed group that made rapid gains in the eastern DRC earlier this year.

Kigali “is trying to gain time for the crisis to worsen,” Mr Tshisekedi told journalists on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly.

“We, from our side, are ready to make peace?”
