@urdjakademiksRDC IBALANKY just laid out the hard truth about how foreign policy actually works versus what we're seeing now. A country's direction comes from its foreign policy while diplomacy is supposed to be the engine that drives it forward. But when there is no clear path or consistent course, active diplomacy turns into aimless wandering and a lack of doctrine makes everything unstable. Inconsistent behavior on the diplomatic stage is dangerous and flirting with an enemy of a friend who was previously voted against at the Security Council raises serious questions about loyalty. Multiplying these processes only exposes weaknesses and bad intentions instead of solving anything. The list of places visited is staggering: Kampala, Nairobi, Luanda, EAC, SADC, Lomé, Doha, Washington, Moscow, Germany, Congo-Brazzaville, Gabon, Burundi, plus Romanian mercenaries involved in these travels. This represents so much time and money wasted by someone who doesn't know what they want and wants everything except peace because power interests are the only thing that matters. The prediction was specific from the start: events will move from Goma through Bukavu and Uvira to Kinshasa, then continue via Kindu, Kalemie, Kolwezi, Kisangani, Kikwit, and Kenge. Going in circles like this is a futile cycle that leads straight to madness. An awakening has finally occurred so where does it go next? Maybe Mars since aliens could intervene at this point. This entire diplomatic effort cost 123 million USD in 2015 alone. Extrapolating that over eight years means the total cost is nearly one billion dollars.
