#Kenya : President #WilliamsRuto ‘s interview reflects a persistent regionalist reading of the crisis in Eastern DRC ,one that often underestimates the Congolese state’s evolving capacity to restore authority over its own territory. The reality on the ground is increasingly pointing toward a different model: a state-led recovery doctrine centered on sovereignty, institutional reconstruction, and national control over security. The DRC has progressively shifted away from dependency on externally driven security arrangements toward an architecture where national institutions regain operational primacy. The orientation toward FARDC-FNB. Unlike previous frameworks built around neutrality or regional balancing, the current approach reinforces the principle that security inside Congolese territory must ultimately remain under Congolese authority. At the same time, the modernization of the FARDC and the deployment of specialized units demonstrate that Kinshasa is no longer approaching the conflict exclusively through emergency regional management, but through long-term state consolidation. - Chris Abayisenga
