President of Rwanda compared to Adolf Hitler by leader of Democratic Republic of Congo

The leader of Congo has strongly criticized the leader of Rwanda by comparing him to Adolf Hitler.

Félix Tshisekedi said that Paul Kagame was acting like Hitler and he also said that he believes Kagame will meet the same fate as Hitler.

Mr Tshisekedi, who is running for election again, was speaking at a gathering in Bukavu, near the border with Rwanda.

He often says that Rwanda supports rebels in the eastern part of his country, but Rwanda always denies it.

The person speaking for Rwanda’s government said the president of Congo‘s comments were a clear threat.

With the election coming up in less than two weeks, Mr. Tshisekedi is working to get support for another term in office. Efforts to stop the fighting in the eastern part of the country have not worked. The area is still not safe, even though troops from the region and the UN have been there. Now, those troops are going away.

Many different armed groups have caused chaos, including the M23 rebels led by the Tutsi people. Tshisekedi says they are supported by Rwanda.

A group of experts from the UN noticed the same thing in a report they released. The US supported their findings.

The M23 group has been taking over land in Congo and making hundreds of thousands of people leave their homes.

On Friday night, Mr Tshisekedi told his supporters that he would tell Mr Kagame that if he wants to act like Adolf Hitler by trying to take over more land, he will suffer the same fate as Adolf Hitler.

“But now he has found someone who is just as strong and is trying to stop him and keep his country safe. ”

Hitler caused the deaths of millions of people, including six million Jewish people in the Holocaust. He killed himself in a bunker in the German capital, Berlin, in 1945.

His attempt to make Germany bigger caused World War Two.

Mr Tshisekedi has said before that the leader of Rwanda is against the Democratic Republic of Congo. Last year, he said in a BBC interview that their relationship was not very close. “It was him who made the bad choice to attack Congo. ”

Mr Kagame always ignored that talk before and said Mr Tshisekedi is a “war monger”. Instead, he is focused on another rebel group, the Hutu-led FDLR, in the eastern DR Congo, which Rwanda sees as a danger.

Yolande Makolo, a spokesperson for the Rwandan government, said on a social media platform that the president of the Democratic Republic of the Congo made a strong threat, when talking about Hitler. She was worried because a rebel group called FDLR has a lot of weapons.

Mr Kagame has been the main leader in Rwanda since the terrible event in 1994 when many people were killed by some people who didn’t like them because of their ethnicity.
