In a lengthy social media post, Kagame claims the statement issued by the Presidency on Wednesday is distorted, a deliberate attack and even contains lies.
Kagame said South Africa is in no position to take on the role of peacemaker or mediator, and if it prefers confrontation, Rwanda is prepared to take it on.
Kagame said SADC’s peacekeeping force which includes South Africa, Malawi and Tanzania is not recognised as such, and that in fact, it’s engaged in offensive combat to help the DRC government attack Rwanda.
