Did French President Emmanuel Macron and his DR Congo counterpart Felix Tshisekedi argue at a joint press conference after Macron said, “Africa should he handed over to France”? ❌ At no point in the press conference did Macron make such a statement
An image appearing to show Democratic Republic of Congo President Felix Tshisekedi pointing at his French counterpart Emmanuel Macron is circulating in social media posts that falsely claim it shows the leaders arguing after Macron purportedly said"Africa should be handed over to France". But at no point in the press conference did Macron make such a comment.
The article claims Macron made the remarks after Tshisekedi"accused France of involvement in the country's genocide in the 90s, directly pointing his finger at Macron and demanding security assistance". Before he supposedly labelled the Congolese president a failure, the article claims Macron said this was"Congo’s own failure and cannot be blamed on France".
The article appears to be referring to the 1994 Rwanda genocide that saw an estimated 800,000 Rwandan Tutsis and moderate Hutus murdered inin the genocide, from backing a genocidal regime to ignoring warnings of the impending massacres.to stop the killings. When it did finally send in troops, it was accused of only doing so to counter the advance of Tutsi rebels and allow the perpetrators to escape to neighbouring Zaire, now the Democratic Republic of Congo.Screenshot of the false post taken on March 23, 2023
