VOICED : MONUSCOs mandate in the DRC

The video discusses MONUSCO, the UN's largest peacekeeping mission in the DRC, aimed at preventing conflict recurrence. Despite significant resources, challenges persist, including a rebel uprising in the east displacing many. The DRC government, led by President Joseph Kabila, accuses external interference, particularly by Rwandan-backed rebels, while the UN urges more government action. Proposals to enhance MONUSCO's mandate and military role are discussed, focusing on neutralizing threats like the M23 insurgency. Meanwhile, civilians suffer amid ongoing violence, with NGOs reporting severe human rights abuses.
