James Swan a officiellement pris ses fonctions de nouveau chef de la mission des Nations Unies en R\u00e9publique d\u00e9mocratique du Congo (MONUSCO).<\/p>\n
Le diplomate am\u00e9ricain a \u00e9t\u00e9 nomm\u00e9 d\u00e9but mars et succ\u00e8de \u00e0 la Guin\u00e9enne Bintou Keita, qui a quitt\u00e9 Kinshasa le 30 novembre 2025 apr\u00e8s quatre ans \u00e0 la t\u00eate de la mission.<\/p>\n
M. Swan conna\u00eet bien le pays. Il a \u00e9t\u00e9 ambassadeur des \u00c9tats-Unis en RDC sous la pr\u00e9sidence de Barack Obama, puis chef de la mission de l’ONU en Somalie. Il revient cependant au Congo \u00e0 un moment particuli\u00e8rement tendu, les relations entre Kinshasa et Kigali \u00e9tant fortement d\u00e9grad\u00e9es par le conflit dans l’est du pays.<\/p>\n
L’une de ses premi\u00e8res t\u00e2ches majeures sera de contribuer \u00e0 la relance du processus de paix et de mettre en \u0153uvre le m\u00e9canisme de surveillance et de v\u00e9rification du cessez-le-feu pr\u00e9vu par l’accord de Doha, sign\u00e9 le 15 novembre 2025. La MONUSCO a d\u00e9j\u00e0 averti qu’elle manquait de ressources suffisantes et a demand\u00e9 au Conseil de s\u00e9curit\u00e9 des Nations Unies un soutien suppl\u00e9mentaire pour mener \u00e0 bien son mandat renouvel\u00e9.<\/p>\n
La situation s\u00e9curitaire dans l’est de la RDC demeure extr\u00eamement instable. Les rebelles de l’AFC\/M23 sont actifs au Nord et au Sud-Kivu, et la Province d’Afrique centrale de l’\u00c9tat islamique gagne du terrain en Ituri, aux c\u00f4t\u00e9s de plusieurs autres groupes arm\u00e9s.<\/p>\n
Une autre priorit\u00e9 essentielle pour James Swan sera d’assurer la r\u00e9ouverture des principaux a\u00e9roports du Nord et du Sud-Kivu et de garantir la libert\u00e9 de circulation des Casques bleus de l’ONU \u2013 des conditions que la MONUSCO juge indispensables \u00e0 l’accomplissement de sa mission.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
