Rwanda's capital to host EAC regional aviation symposium

Rwandan capital is expected to host this year's edition of the East
African Community's Aviation Symposium that is among other things,
expected to provide an updated picture of the new regulatory framework
to be implemented for the aviation industry at large.

The symposium has been organised by the EAC Civil Aviation Safety and
Security Oversight Agency (CASSOA), in collaboration with the Civil
Aviation Authorities in the five EAC Partner States.

To be held on May 09, this year, the EAC Head of Communications and
Public Affairs Owora Richard Othieno, said the symposium will focus on
sustainable development of civil aviation in the region.

This is the third regional Aviation Symposium and is themed:
"Addressing Today's Challenges: Aviation Safety and Security through
Regional Integration, Regulatory Compliance and Stakeholder
Participation".

An outlook into the challenges posed for the sustainable development
of civil aviation will also be addressed in relation to specific areas
such as regional integration, regulatory compliance as well as
stakeholder participation.
"The outcome of the interactive symposium will provide valuable views
from civil aviation stakeholders," the EAC official said.

He said it will aid in the implementation of the International Civil
Aviation Organization (ICAO) Standards and Recommended Practices
(SARPs), as provided for in the Chicago Convention and its 19 Annexes.
The regional symposium is also expected to bring together aviation
sector regulators, air operators and service providers, trainee
inspectors and security, air transport policy makers and academia.

Le Troisième Mandat de Louise Mushikiwabo à l'OIF : Entre Précédent et Principe Démocratique.

Le Troisième Mandat de Louise Mushikiwabo à l'OIF : Entre Précédent et Principe Démocratique. L'Alternance à l'OIF : Pourquoi un Troisième Mandat Fragilise la Crédibilité de la Francophonie. Introduction Louise Mushikiwabo veut un troisième mandat à la tête de l'Organisation internationale de la Francophonie. Son annonce, faite bien avant l'émergence d'autres candidats, rappelle une tactique familière en Afrique : affirmer qu'on a le soutien populaire sans jamais le prouver publiquement. La méthode est rodée. Des dirigeants africains l'utilisent depuis des décennies pour prolonger leur règne. Ils clament que "le peuple le demande" ou que "les partenaires soutiennent" cette reconduction. Aucune preuve formelle n'est nécessaire. L'affirmation devient réalité politique. Mais voilà le problème : la Francophonie prêche la démocratie, l'État de droit et l'alternance au pouvoir. Peut-elle tolérer en son sein ce qu...

Rubaya Mine Under USA’s Control: Kagame Has No Grounds to Object.

Rubaya Mine: Strategic Interests, Regional Conflict and the DRC–USA Cooperation Framework Rubaya mine, located in Masisi territory in North Kivu, eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo, is a Congolese resource. It was a Congolese resource before the M23 advanced on it, it remains a Congolese resource today, and it will remain a Congolese resource regardless of what any regional actor claims, implies or pursues. That is not a political position. It is a statement of international law and sovereign right. This foundational point must be stated plainly because it is frequently obscured in discussions about the conflict in eastern Congo. Debates about security narratives, mineral partnerships and geopolitical alignment risk creating a false impression that Rubaya's ownership or governance is somehow open to negotiation between external parties. It is not. The Democratic Republic of the Congo holds sovereign authority over its territory and its natural resources. N...

Rubaya Mine Under U.S. Oversight: Why Kigali Would Struggle to Justify Opposition

Rubaya Mine Under U.S. Oversight: Why Kigali Would Struggle to Justify Opposition   The proposed transfer of operational oversight of the Rubaya mine in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo to the United States marks a potentially decisive shift in one of Central Africa's most contentious economic and security flashpoints. Located in North Kivu province, the Rubaya site is one of the world's most significant sources of coltan, a mineral essential to global electronics supply chains. For months, the area has been associated with the presence of armed actors, including the rebel group M23. Rwanda has repeatedly justified its regional posture by pointing to security threats posed by the FDLR, an armed group with roots in the aftermath of the 1994 genocide. However, if the mine were to come under transparent U.S.-backed administration as part of a broader cooperation framework between Kinshasa and Washington, Kigali would face limited diplomatic grounds to...
