NOUVEAU PARTENARIAT STRATEGIQUE COMME ALTERNATIVE A L’ETAT DE SIEGE DANS L’EST DE LA RD CONGO POUR LE RETABLISSEMENT DE L’AUTORITE DE L’ETAT. PERSPECTIVE D’UN TOURNANT PRO-RUSSE

ABSTRACT The reconfiguration of the international environment has lost its prestige, and the hierarchy of powers continues to undergo changes that shift areas of influence. This state of affairs is even causing rifts in foreign relations between states, to the benefit of others or to free themselves from foreign domination. The case of the DRC draws our attention as long as it faces recurring insecurity in its eastern part, where 122 uncontrolled armed groups operate with the involvement of foreign countries against a backdrop of illicit international trafficking in precious materials and natural resources. It can be observed that since 1885, the date marking the partition of Africa, the latter has experienced the most egregious crimes, with predation continuing to this day under aggressive and disguised neocolonialism. Despite so-called pendulum-like international aid, no African country has been able to free itself from the Western yoke and, failing to do so, is exposed to the risk of war or proven destabilization. This is illustrated by coups d'état and other uprisings in Africa. This status quo leaves the DRC with no choice but to opt for another partnership, such as those seen in Mali, the Central African Republic, etc., which would put an end to Western influence, which tends to perpetuate chaos, and to its pax occidentalis, which it presents as the solution to the African crisis that it itself instigated. It is in this context that this study attempts to suggest such a scenario, which would lead to a Russian turning point in the DRC. Keywords : strategic partnership, state authority, DR Congo, Russia.
