Editor's Note:
Ce rapport, le premier d’une série consacrée aux factions belligérantes dans l’est de la RDC, a pour objectif de contribuer à l’élaboration de ces solutions en faisant la lumière sur les principaux acteurs du conflit et leurs intérêts. Comprendre le M23 et son prédécesseur direct, le Congrès national pour la défense du peuple (CNDP), permettra d’expliquer pourquoi la violence persiste dans la région des Kivus malgré l’accord de paix conclu en 2002 qui a uni le pays et mis fin à une guerre aux effets ravageurs.Le principal vecteur de la rébellion est le sentiment, éprouvé à Kigali ainsi que parmi des hommes d’affaires Tutsi et des commandants militaires du Nord-Kivu, que le gouvernement congolais, du fait de ses dysfonctionnements, est incapable de protéger leurs différents intérêts—sécurité, investissements et pouvoir politique. C’est donc pour sauvegarder ces biens qu’ils ont apporté leur soutien à des groupes armé au CNDP de 2004 à 2009 et, depuis avril 2012, au M23.Des clivages ethniques virulents ont exacerbé cette méfiance. La communauté Tutsi, dont sont originaires ces groupes armés, occupe une place précaire au Nord-Kivu, oscillant entre privilèges et discriminations. Ses dirigeants font partie des propriétaires terriens et des entrepreneurs les plus riches de la région, mais la prévalence et l’intensité exceptionnelle du sentiment anti-Tutsi au Congo sont également indéniables.Une dernière source d’insécurité est l’État congolais lui-même. Son inaptitude à exercer son autorité, associée à une puissance militaire qui est insuffisante pour pouvoir réprimer les rivaux armés, pousse à croire que le seul moyen de garantir un minimum de sécurité—à savoir la protection à la fois des biens et des libertés individuelles—passe par la force armée. La faiblesse des institutions étatiques est sans doute l’élément le plus insoluble du problème actuel.Parmi les solutions durables pouvant être apportées à ce cycle de violence, citons une révision profonde des institutions, une réforme foncière et des changements fondamentaux au niveau des relations dans la région, en particulier entre le Rwanda et la RDC. De telles solutions ne sauraient être imposées de l’extérieur; un groupe de travail de haut niveau instauré par l’Union africaine et les Nations Unies pourrait proposer de nouvelles politiques à l’intention des gouvernements, des hauts responsables militaires et des leaders communautaires de la région. Une telle démarche pourrait ainsi favoriser l’ouverture d’un débat et enrichir un nouveau processus politique.
