Another dirty Chinese attempt to attack AVZ.....
And New Lines is an American publication although started by a Syrian immigrant
So the minerals for security is on the agenda?
How does this effect CATH now.
The request by DRC was to the US for security.
Only way to secure Monano for CATH is form a binding partnership with AVZ in a take over that allows US .AVZ and CATH involvement.
What do you think ?

From blood minerals to peace minerals!
In a pragmatic manner, strategy is generally defined as a set of ways, means, resources, steps and operations implemented to achieve one or more objectives, as adopted by the Democratic Republic of Congo with its President Félix Tshisekedi.
The DR Congolese have been talking about this word for some time now, appreciating in their own way the action of their leaders.
After thirty years of a deadly conflict, made up of massacres, rapes, pillaging and population displacements, the world is witnessing, dumbfounded, a real reversal of dynamics in the evolution of a crisis, of which few observers predicted such a surprising development in view of the forces present and the close protagonists involved.
The most decisive element was certainly the United Nations Security Council Resolution 2773.
This condemns the role of Rwanda and the M23 in the continuation of the crisis.
It demands respect for the sovereignty and territorial integrity of the DRC, as well as the withdrawal of uninvited forces on Congolese soil.
There is also and above all a shower of unprecedented sanctions, both individual and collective, brandished by major global players to mark the international community's desire to finally stop the crisis and establish peace.
So many developments that the Congolese owe to one man, Félix Antoine Tshisekedi Tshilombo, whose commitment to the diplomatic option has often been ridiculed before leading today to results that have not failed to surprise both the most optimistic and the most skeptical observers.
Beyond the change in attitude of major players in the international community, what the Congolese have savored most in recent weeks is, in this dynamic, the new approach taken by the American administration under the leadership of President Donald Trump.
An approach that is expected, according to sources in Kinshasa and Washington, to be a historic "Minerals for Security" agreement that is set to profoundly change the relations of friendship and cooperation between the United States and the DR Congo.
But also to considerably reduce the influence of Rwanda, now designated as an aggressor, in the Great Lakes sub-region.
Basically, Washington should have access to the DRC's critical minerals and at the same time offer Kinshasa the tools likely to ensure it more security and stability, as well as infrastructure.
These critical minerals include nickel, cobalt, tantalum, germanium, uranium, lithium, niobium, etc.
While sources in the American capital report an invitation from the White House to President Tshisekedi in early April to confirm and conclude the "deal" between the two countries, it is believed that high-level discussions took place last week in the American capital between delegates from the two governments to define the broad outlines of the agreement.
In other words, Kinshasa needs more than ever to strengthen its security and infrastructure sector when Washington, increasingly outpaced by Beijing in the sector of future technologies, intends to supply itself directly at the source in a win-win formula that has continued to motivate the Congolese authorities.
The fact remains that the DRC must learn to put its shop in order and clean its Augean stables to deserve the trust of its partners.
Echoes from Washington in this case report the emphasis placed by the American administration on the fight against corruption and impunity as a brake on development, as well as on the end of embezzlement of public funds.
The ball is thus, ultimately, in the DRC's court.
Jules Alingete, the Head of the General Inspectorate of Finance (IGF), valued by the Head of State must redouble his efforts, as must the Court of Auditors which began with an awareness campaign.
With this win-win deal, the minerals of blood will thus give way to the minerals of peace.
No one will be a loser.
Kigali must integrate this situation for true peace in the Great Lakes.
