Dr. Congo failed in Romanian mercenaries

It has been a humiliating week for almost 300 Romanian mercenaries to fight for the Army Democratic Republic of Congo.

After the rubber attacks the Eastern city attacks money to earn money.

BBC has seen contracted contracts, which are paid for about $ 5,000 (£ 4,000), as regular military procurement reaches about $ 100, or sometimes without paying.

The Romanians hired the army that fighting against Rwanda-protection M23 rebels.

When the offensive gum began on Sunday night, the Romanians had to refuge in the base of the United Nations at the base of the PeaceAnping.

“M23 rebels protected Rwandan troops and leading military equipment and came to our positions around the city of Goma,” Timodi Constantin Timefti, TVR tells Romanian TVR channel on Monday.

“The National Army left the fight and forced to retire.”

The Romanian Foreign Ministry said Andrei ţărnea told “complex” negotiations, which saw M23 hand on Romanian fighters.

It is located in the border with Goma Ruanda and were filmed as the Mercenary crossed by journalists, giving body searches and other checks.

Before crossing, telephone movies in French Ngoma in French, sit on the ground, cross his legs and put his hands on the head.

He informed his military training – it was with the French foreign legion, Romanians replied.

“They hired a salary of $ 8,000 per month, you eat well” Ngamom shoutedThe difference between them and emphasizing the wage of the Congolian Army Procurement.

“We’re fighting for our future. Don’t come to the adventure here,” he warned.

It is not clearly attended by Ngoma 8,000 figure, but the former Romanian mercenaries of October shows BBC.

The agreement explains the “unlimited period of the service, contractors made a month off after three months of expansion.

In the Romania capital, I met in the Roman capital, I went to research in Bucarest, and a group of UN experts is the Romanian company “with the Romanian foreign legion” in France. “

Horaţiu Potra is directed by the Romanian who describes as a military educator.

In June Goma, I noticed such mercenaries in checkpoints and I spread around the city, working closely with the army.

Others, others, others, driving Congoles troops in army vehicles.

“When they arrived, everyone referred to as Russian:” Fiston Mahamba, the founder of the disinformation team told him the founders of Congo, told BBC.

“I think this was associated with the Russian Mercenary Group, with the presence of several African countries in Wagner.”

In fact, Asociatia Ralf can also work, “Burkina Faso, Congo, Côte d’Ivoire, Niger, Senegal, Sierra Leone, Gambia and Guinea”.

The UN experts say that two private military companies strengthen strength in 2022, gathering M23, and began to catch the territory, began in North Kivu.

The province has been unstable for decades, in decades that exploit there, it is making money from minerals like gold and coltan. It is used for electric vehicles and mobile phone batteries.

The first company was registered with the Agemira RDC, Olivier Bazin, the French Congo. Experts worked in Bulgarian, Belarusian, Georgian, Algerian, French and Congo.

This outfit was renovated and increased by the assets of the Congo military air, rehabilitation of airports and ensuring physical security of aircraft and other strategic locations.

The second contract was signed between the protection of the Congo, represented by the Congolese company by Thierry Kongolo and Asociatia Ralf.

According to the UN experts, the contract determined that ASociatia Ralf had extensive experience and experience when providing security management services.

Land troops would offer training and instruction through a contingent of 300 instructors on the ground, many of them Romanians.

When I talked about the implication of his group in July, he said: “We need to protect ourselves. M23 attacks us, just:, you are just a home. ‘

Mr. Potra was conducted in Congo Dr. Dragon, when he returned to Romane a few months ago, and has been discussed in a controversy Canceled presidential elections there.

It was tremendously arrested in December and has declined to provide security to the Russian candidate for the CălGescu Georgescu. And from October, he refused to return to BBC calls.

He spoke to the former Mercenary and BBC in fifty-rooms in a state of anonymity, said that Asociatia Ralf did the resignation.

The Romanians had done many more on the ground in the province of North Kivu: “Only the very small number of us were trainers.

“We made a maximum of 12 hours long turns, gum cars care for external positions.”

Pay was not worth the risk of military contractors worth taking.

“The missions were disorganized, poor working conditions. They should stop going to the Romanians because they were dangerous.”

He also claimed that appropriate unprecedented verifications were not made and some Romanian hiring had military training, as one of its first colleagues was a firefighter as an example.

The Congo government has not responded to a BBC request whether the antecedent checks are made, or about the difference between private contractors and Kolgolar troops.

Vasile’s family of Bad de family, two Romanians who died last February, when the army fighters were caught by M23 fighters, in the village near the gum, he said the police was BBC.

The 46-year-old was abolished because he took the role of the force and the Congo Dr. Birth offer.

He was struggling to pay an apartment and needed more money.

Many Romanians attracted opportunities for well-paid work.

In October I met a man in Bucarest, he returned home to see more recruitment to go to Goma. He had a military origin and the NATO walks in Afghanistan with the Romanian Army.

“We are very busy trying to find 800 people trying to be prepared for work and fight,” Mercenary Recruiter said BBC.

He said he did not work with Asociatia Ralf, but he refused what he wore.

“Procurement will be placed in the position of training level, which earn between 400- $ 550 per day,” he explained.

Asking about the procurement process, he stressed its confidentiality.

“Such jobs are not published anywhere,” he said by adding whether he preferred networks like WhatsApp.

He showed me a WhatsApp team, with more than 300 Romanians signed up, many of them were former military.

Last year, the spokesman of the Rwanda Government, Yolande Makoli striking the presence of Eastern Eastern Merces of Congo, saying it was the violation of Geneva conventions, for banning the use of contracted fighters.

In response, the Government of the Congo government was discarded by Patrick Muyaya’s permanent complaint called Rwandan.

“We have some instructors who train our military strength because we have that urgent situation,” said BBC.

A Kergolar soldier who met in June expressed the grief over the army strategy.

“Payment is unfair. When it comes to fighting, we are first sent to the first lines,” said BBC about the state of anonymity.

“They (mercenaries) only come as backup”.

He confirmed that his salary was about $ 100 per month, but often delayed or paying.

I contacted him a week ago when he still confirmed that he was still in Kibatan, near the gums, where the army is founded.

“Things are very bad,” he said in a voice memo.

I was unable to hold from him, and the Kibati Base overflowed M23 with many dead soldiers, including his commander.

The observers indicate the points of the gums of the Congo fracture defense strategy, where the overlapping strengths and fuzzy command lines played in the hands of M23.

Richard Monciec, director of the international lakes of large lakes, as well as mercenaries, also known as the Kongo Army known as Wazalendo. .

“Planning military offenses is impossible to plan the military crime of authority chain and responsibility,” BBC said.

“I think it’s important to work with a greater consistency in the armed effort in North Kivu, probably reducing the number of armed groups or armed actors.”

For the former Mercenary, the fate of his Romanesian colleagues has not been surprised.

“Poor commands involve failure,” BBC said.
