Why were #DRC leaders quick to accuse #Rwanda upon the first attack of #M23?

#Thread.
Upon accession to power, President Tshisekedi wanted to be seen as tackling the protracted armed conflict in Eastern #DRC. So he declared a "State of Emergency" in North Kivu and Ituri.

State of emergency means the region is run by the army, most civil rights are suspended.
State of emergency also means a hefty budget sent to Eastern DRC and managed by the army.

Problem: According to a parliament audit, of the $74M released from state coffers, only $23M (32%) can be accounted for, most of it (2/3) vanished in thin air.
