Rwanda rejects US calls for de-escalation in the Congo
Fox News
Rwandan authorities on Monday rejected American calls for a military withdrawal from the Democratic Republic of the Congo amid a "dramatic" escalation at the border.
The rebel group, known by its initials FDLR, "is fully integrated into" the Congolese army, the statement said.
Although Rwanda has long cited a threat posed by FLDR, authorities there had never admitted to a military presence in eastern Congo, whose authorities accuse the tiny central African country of actively supporting the violent armed group known as M23.
