Rwanda has no uncertainty to work with all forces to stabilize the RCA

{Rwanda’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, Louise Mushikiwabo, said that Rwanda will have no ambiguity in its mission and collaboration with all the forces who serve in the International Stabilization Mission in CAR (MISCA).}

She was responding to a question from her twitter follower who wanted to know whether Rwanda is ready to collaborate with FARDC under the same guide.

FARDC used to accuse Rwanda to support the M23 rebellion while Rwanda also accused FARDC to collaborate with FDLR rebels which Rwanda sees as the threat to its security.

Last week, President of the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), Joseph Kabila, has decided to send a battalion in the Central African Republic as part of the International Stabilization Mission in CAR (MISCA) that is being deployed.

Rwanda also has been asked by the Africa Union to contribute its troops in that mission and it has responded positively.

Meanwhile, Burundian and Chadian troops in the African force deployed in the Central African Republic (CAR) have exchanged fire in Bangui, raising new questions yesterday about the stance of the Chadian contingent of a UN-mandated force sent to tame a country rocked by sectarian killings.

The Burundian military reported the exchange occurred on Monday as the Chadians, mainly because they are Muslim; face accusations of complicity with the Seleka rebels who overthrew President Francois Bozize in March in the predominantly Christian country now gearing up for Christmas.
