This is the reason why Rwanda did not continue the attack!

On the Independence Day military parade on August 15, the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) displayed the newly received domestically produced WMA301 105mm wheeled assault gun, as well as a large number of command vehicles and repair vehicles! Note that they just received them, do you understand what this means? Because the DRC used to be a pro-China country for decades, but later took a wrong turn. Therefore, it's understandable that Rwanda gave the DRC a lesson, isn't it?

In the first three months of 2025, the DRC was defeated by the Rwandan army, losing almost two provinces. In late June 2025, the DRC and Rwanda signed a ceasefire agreement in the United States, which ended the border war. However, the Rwandan army did not return the two provinces in the northeast of the DRC, and it seems they have no intention of returning them. Because Rwanda is a small country, the area of the DRC is nearly 100 times that of Rwanda.

If Rwanda withdraws its troops, it will definitely suffer great losses in the future. So, by occupying two provinces, Rwanda has gained about 100,000 square kilometers of land, which may be occupied for decades, eventually becoming part of Rwanda. This is very likely to happen.

As for the DRC being attacked, various parties have shown an indifferent attitude. The DRC once sought help from the United States, hoping that the US would send troops to train the DRC's army and command operations, but the US showed no interest. The US is busy with various fronts and has no time to deal with the DRC. Eventually, after the DRC sought help from all over the world and got no response, it was forced to accept certain conditions and chose to sign a ceasefire.

Actually, the DRC is also one of the major buyers of Chinese weapons. Just look at the infantry fighting vehicles and various weapons used in the DRC's military parade, and you can see that the DRC is buying master weapons to protect itself. Perhaps this is also one of the reasons why the DRC was allowed to pass.

The DRC has already suffered the consequences. You know, breaking contracts recklessly comes at a cost that the DRC cannot afford. The loss of two provinces covering 120,000 square kilometers has caused the DRC to lose a huge amount of property, which is difficult to calculate. Therefore, a small country that dares to break the rules will eventually be punished, and when it is truly punished, there will be nowhere to cry.
