The Spin

Establishment-critical narrative

There's a new major war in the making in the DRC, and the West is ultimately to blame for it due to its complacency toward its ally, Rwanda. It's unacceptable that evidence of Rwandan support for ethnic Tutsi insurgencies has been played down for so long. Time is running short to prevent even worse consequences.

Guardian

Pro-establishment narrative

It's undeniable that the international community must help find a political solution to this armed conflict before it's too late. That said, it's misguided and overly simplistic to point fingers at the West when deep-rooted regional tensions and the weakness of the Congolese Army are actually to blame.
