RDC-Rwanda: «Les deux parties doivent mettre en œuvre ces obligations» comme l'exigent les accords de Washington

Le ministre rwandais des Affaires étrangères, Olivier Nduhungirehe, est l'invité de la rédaction. La semaine dernière, Kigali et Kinshasa ont tenu à Londres la sixième réunion de leur Comité conjoint de suivi de l'accord de paix. Les deux pays s'y sont engagés à désamorcer les tensions, notamment autour de Minembwe, et à élargir le mandat du mécanisme de vérification du cessez-le-feu. Mais cet engagement intervient alors que Washington multiplie les sanctions contre des responsables et des entreprises rwandaises, accusés de complicité dans le trafic de l'or et du coltan issus des zones contrôlées par l'AFC/M23. Devant le Conseil de sécurité, l'émissaire américain Massad Boulos a lui-même mis en cause le respect des engagements de Kigali. Le Rwanda maintient-il sa version des faits face à ces accusations convergentes ? Olivier Nduhungirehe répond aux questions de Patient Ligodi. RFI : On a suivi, notamment au cours de la dernière réunion du Conseil de sécurité des Nations Unies, Massad Boulos, qui a déclaré que la RDC n'avait pas neutralisé les FDLR et que le Rwanda n'avait pas retiré ses forces de défense ni cessé son soutien au M23. Que répondez-vous justement au médiateur ? Olivier Nduhungirehe : Il faut prendre ces déclarations en combinaison avec la déclaration du secrétaire d'État Marco Rubio, le 5 juin, lors de l'audition à la Chambre des représentants. Il avait dit que le Rwanda est en train de mettre en œuvre ses engagements, même si ce n'est pas suffisant, c'est ce qu'il avait dit. Mais il n'avait rien dit sur la RDC. Mais le problème, c'est que les engagements de la RDC font aussi partie intégrante des accords de Washington. Et jusqu'à présent, il n'y a pas le moindre commencement d'exécution de ces engagements. En ce qui concerne Massad Boulos, le problème qui est présent, c'est que l'accord de paix est un accord qui a été signé par deux parties avec des obligations, des engagements sécuritaires. Même les Américains disent que le gouvernement congolais ne s'est jamais engagé dans la mise en œuvre de son obligation sécuritaire principale. À lire aussiRDC et Rwanda «ont convenu de mesures concrètes» sur l'application de l'accord de paix, selon Washington L'accusation contre le Congo est là. Le Congo n'a pas neutralisé les FDLR. Les FDLR sont localisées sur le territoire congolais. Les FDLR, on les retrouve notamment à Walikale. Les FDLR ont dit qu'ils ne vont pas désarmer. Ça, c'est factuel. Pourquoi vous ne quittez pas les territoires congolais comme le dit Massad Boulos ? Est-ce que vous pensez que l'accord de Washington est un accord unilatéral qui ne regarde que le seul Rwanda ? Pourquoi, dans un accord de paix, tout en reconnaissant que l'une des parties n'a pas mis en œuvre ces accords, continue de soutenir les FDLR, continue d'utiliser les drones pour tuer des populations civiles ? Mais dans le même temps, on dit que l'autre partie doit mettre en œuvre ses obligations, comme si c'était un accord qui ne concernait que le seul Rwanda. Donc il faut quand même, à un certain moment, être cohérent. Toutes les deux parties, comme l'exigent les accords de Washington, doivent mettre en œuvre ces obligations. Ce n'est pas le seul Rwanda qui doit le faire. À lire aussiEst de la RDC: Kigali affirme que toutes les parties doivent respecter leurs engagements Les États-Unis ont sanctionné Gasabo Gold et plusieurs autres entreprises rwandaises qu'ils accusent d'avoir participé au trafic provenant des zones contrôlées par la M23 dans l'est de la RDC. Quelle est votre réponse par rapport à ça ? Les États-Unis admettent que la partie congolaise n'a pas mis en œuvre ses obligations de neutralisation des FDLR. Les États-Unis admettent même qu'il y a eu une intensification des attaques de drones. Vous avez vu la dernière déclaration du groupe international de contact qui parle de ces attaques de drones. Mais lorsqu'il s'agit de sanctions, il n'y a que le Rwanda qui est sanctionné. Donc, il y a un problème. Ça nous ramène à une autre opinion sur la médiation. Nous sommes déçus par la partialité de cette médiation. La partialité de plus en plus flagrante, de plus en plus criante, où, malgré les preuves sur le terrain, malgré les éléments que nous avons fournis aux Américains depuis l'année passée, quasiment chaque jour sur les violations quotidiennes de Kinshasa dans l'application de l'accord de paix. Mais à la fin, il n'y a que le Rwanda qui est sanctionné. C'est un problème. Qu'est-ce qui explique cela ? Il faut demander à ceux qui prennent les sanctions. Ce n'est pas nous. Et ce n'est pas la première fois puisque là, on a eu l'armée rwandaise qui a été sanctionnée. On a eu des officiers rwandais qui ont été sanctionnés. Gasabo Gold a été sanctionné par l'Union européenne, on se rappelle l'année dernière, et là maintenant par les États-Unis, ça fait quand même beaucoup. Oui, justement, c'est ça la question qu'il faut poser à ceux qui prennent des sanctions. Si les Américains ou les Européens disaient que la RDC mettait en œuvre ses obligations, je comprendrais qu'ils ne prennent pas de sanctions contre la RDC. Mais le problème, c'est qu'ils admettent eux-mêmes que la RDC n'a rien fait dans la neutralisation des FDLR. Et d'ailleurs, au lieu de s'acheminer vers cette solution, la RDC prend le chemin inverse. Par exemple, à la mi-mars, lors de la première réunion entre les trois parties, donc la RDC, le Rwanda et le Burundi après la prise d'Uvira, l'armée congolaise, les commandants des FARD, ont déclaré le 29 mars à Kisangani qu'ils allaient engager des actions contre les FDLR. Mais qu'est-ce qui s'est passé ? C'est que deux jours après le 31 mars, ils ont plutôt envoyé des hélicoptères à Walikale pour donner des armes, des munitions, de l'argent aux mêmes FDLR. Nous avons donné cette information aux Américains. Donc, il y a un problème dans cette médiation qui fait que la partialité de la médiation américaine ne présage rien de bon dans une mise en œuvre effective des accords de Washington, et aussi ne présage rien de bon pour une paix durable à l'est de la RDC et dans les Grands Lacs africains.

« Nous avons besoin rapidement de 1,4 milliard de dollars pour lutter contre le virus Ebola », affirme sur RFI le docteur Jean Kaseya, en ligne depuis Kinshasa. Il est le directeur général d'Africa CDC, le Centre africain de contrôle et de prévention des maladies, et qui sort d'une réunion de travail avec les présidents du Congo Kinshasa et du Burundi. Mais d'abord, le médecin congolais s'exprime sur le cas de son confrère qui vient d'être testé positif à Ebola à son arrivée à Paris en provenance du Congo. Pourquoi l'a-t-on laissé monter dans un avion ?  RFI ​​​​​ : Après le premier cas d'Ebola identifié en France et donc hors d'Afrique, est ce qu'il y a un risque mondial pour la santé publique ? Jean Kaseya : Le risque zéro n'existe pas et lorsque nous avons déclaré cette épidémie le 15 mai, nous avions déjà dit que, si jamais cette dimension régionale et cette dimension concentrée de l'épidémie au niveau de l'Ituri n'étaient pas considérées, il y aurait des risques que d'autres pays soient affectés. Donc, vous nous dites aujourd'hui qu'il y a quand même un risque pour toute la planète, c'est ça ? Nous vous disons aujourd'hui qu'il y a un risque. C'est pourquoi nous disons très clairement que c'est la solidarité qui va nous permettre d'arrêter cette épidémie. Et nous avons, l'OMS et Africa CDC, produit un travail. Ce travail demande aujourd'hui que nous puissions investir les moyens nécessaires, aussi bien pour l'Afrique que pour les autres pays. Et je réitère que la fermeture des frontières n'est pas la solution. La solution, c'est de permettre à ce que nous puissions avoir les moyens de répondre à cette épidémie afin d'éviter que d'autres pays soient affectés. Donc, ce qui s'est passé avec ce médecin arrivé à Paris, c'est une alerte en fait pour toute la communauté internationale ? D'abord, laissez-moi remercier ce médecin. Laissez-moi remercier son organisation Alima d'avoir été proche du peuple meurtri de l'Ituri. Ce médecin a beaucoup d'expérience dans la gestion des épidémies passées. Il est anesthésiste réanimateur et il a été au front du 19 mai au 22 juin. Il a quitté l'Ituri le 19 juin et a transité par Kinshasa. Quand il a quitté Kinshasa le 22, il ne présentait pas de symptômes. Et je voudrais aussi rappeler que le gouvernement de la RDC a mis en place des dispositifs de détection dans les aéroports de Bunia et de Kinshasa, qui permettent de savoir qui a les signes. Donc, à l'heure actuelle, nous ne pouvons pas parler d'un quelconque manquement. Nous devons juste dire que les signes se sont manifestés quand il a atterri à Paris. Et effectivement, pour répondre à votre question, ce sont des signaux d'alerte. Si jamais les partenaires et les autres gouvernements donateurs ne viennent pas, ces signaux d'alerte risqueront malheureusement de se multiplier. L'OMS dit que la transmission de l'épidémie d'Ebola s'accélère. Est-ce à dire qu'on n'a pas encore atteint le pic de cette épidémie ? A l'heure actuelle, nous ne pouvons pas encore dire que nous avons atteint le pic de cette épidémie. C'est vrai qu'il y a beaucoup de succès en termes de personnes qui sont guéries. Il y a des succès en termes de mobilisations communautaires. On commence à sentir que, de plus en plus, les communautés croient au message qu'on leur donne. Mais ce qui est compliqué, ce qui ne peut pas nous permettre de dire qu'on a atteint le pic, c'est la situation humanitaire qui est sérieuse. Nous avons des camps de déplacés internes qui contiennent près d'un million de personnes, et l'accès à ces camps est difficile, alors que nous savons que l'épidémie est dans ces camps. Et ça, c'est dans les camps de déplacés d'Ituri ? Effectivement, c'est dans les camps de déplacés, c'est dans l'épicentre, à Mongbwalu. Et c'est là où nous devons multiplier les efforts. Aujourd'hui, lors de la réunion des chefs d'Etat que nous avons eue, le mardi 23 juin à Kinshasa, avec le président Tshisekedi et le président Ndayishimiye du Burundi, nous nous sommes dit que l'aspect humanitaire compte maintenant pour 70 % de la réponse. L'aspect sanitaire compte pour 30 %. Ça signifie quoi ? Si nous n'arrivons pas à résoudre l'aspect humanitaire, nous n'allons pas arrêter cette épidémie. Au G7 d'Évian, la semaine dernière, en France, les sept pays les plus riches du monde ont promis une forte mobilisation contre cette souche d'Ebola jusqu'à quelque deux milliards de dollars. Est-ce que vous y croyez ? J'attends de voir ça. Les effets d'annonce ne m'impressionnent plus. Et je le dis aux pays du G7. Et j'ai eu l'opportunité d'en parler avec les autorités françaises qui président le G7. J'ai dit aujourd'hui que nous avions un plan de réponse à 518 millions de dollars, mais pas plus de 180 à 200 millions sont concrètement arrivés. Ça, c'était le volet sanitaire. Mais nous venons aussi de réévaluer le volet humanitaire. Aujourd'hui, nous avons besoin de 1,4 milliards de dollars pour nous assurer que nous parviendrons à avoir accès aux camps. Je vous ai dit que ce sont des camps de près d'un million de personnes où des maladies viennent, mais auxquels nous n'avons pas accès. Et ces camps-là, pendant longtemps, ont été abandonnés. Les gens n'ont pas d'eau courante, les gens n'ont pas de nourriture, les gens n'ont pas de toit. Et maintenant nous venons pour leur dire qu'il y a une épidémie. Et ces gens nous disent : pourquoi vous venez maintenant ? Donc, ça signifie que nous devons assurer leurs besoins primaires. Nous devons démanteler certains de ces camps, et nous devons nous assurer que tout le monde a accès aux soins. Et cela va nécessiter 1.4 milliards. J'attends voir venir aujourd'hui pour qu'on réponde à cette urgence rapidement.   À lire aussiEbola en RDC: «Presque chaque épidémie a sa légende»

In this episode, Professor Sahar Aziz is in conversation with award winning journalist Isma'il Kuskush about the complex origins, multiple domestic and foreign actors, and human rights crisis of Sudan's war. The ongoing power struggle between rival military elites is rooted in decades of militarization, failed democratic transition, and unresolved ethnic conflict. Its humanitarian consequences—mass displacement, famine risk, and widespread atrocities—have elevated it into one of the most severe human rights crises globally.The current war in Sudan began in April 2023, when fighting erupted between two factions of the country's security forces: the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF). The immediate trigger was a dispute over integrating the RSF into the national army as part of a planned transition to civilian rule after years of military dominance. A critical turning point occurred in 2019, when longtime dictator Omar al-Bashir was overthrown. A fragile civilian–military transition followed, but in October 2021, the SAF and RSF jointly staged a coup that derailed democratic reforms. Tensions between the two leaders then escalated into open conflict as both sought control over the state, economic resources (especially gold), and the future political system.The devastating war in Sudan has produced what many international organizations describe as the world's largest humanitarian crisis. Millions of civilians have been displaced, and basic infrastructure—healthcare, food distribution, and education—has collapsed in many regions.BiographyIsma'il Kushkush is a Sudanese-American journalist who was based in Khartoum, Sudan, for eight years, where he contributed to The New York Times, CNN, Voice of America and Al Jazeera English. For two three-month periods in 2014 and again in 2015, he was acting bureau chief for The New York Times in East Africa based in Nairobi. He has covered political, economic, social and cultural stories from Sudan, South Sudan, Kenya, Ethiopia, Somalia, Burundi, Sweden and the United States.

With nearly 1.3 billion disabled people in the world, we assume that the medical community focuses on physical health. But who is helping people with the emotional and spiritual impact of disability? In this session, we will explore the emotional and spiritual impact of disability and how the church and global workers can effectively support the disabled community with this critical need.

Une édition spéciale consacrée à l'actuelle République démocratique du Congo au temps de la colonisation belge. Nous sommes avec Florence Morice qui va nous accompagner pendant toute cette émission. Production exceptionnelle sur les mères oubliées de la colonisation belge avant l'indépendance de 1960. Ce qui allait devenir Zaïre et République démocratique du Congo, c'était le Congo belge et tout un pan de la vie sociétale du pays est resté dans l'ombre...  Les mères oubliées de la colonisation belge : «Je l'appelais Papa» (1/2) Au Congo Belge, avant l'indépendance de 1960, ces femmes ont porté, élevé, parfois perdu des enfants dont l'existence dérangeait l'ordre colonial. Ces femmes congolaises sont devenues mères à 13, 14 ou 15 ans d'un enfant métis avec un colon belge. Alors que la parole des enfants métis commence peu à peu à émerger, celle de leurs mères est encore largement dans l'ombre. Les témoignages de ces mères aujourd'hui âgées de 80, parfois 90 ans, racontent une époque où le pouvoir colonial s'exerçait aussi dans l'intimité, sur les corps des femmes.   Les mères oubliées de la colonisation belge : maternités confisquées (2/2)  Ces femmes ont porté et mis au monde des enfants qui dérangeaient l'ordre colonial d'avant 1960. Certaines ont dû les cacher, fuir avec eux ou vivre dans la peur qu'on vienne les leur prendre. D'autres les ont vus partir sans savoir où ils grandiraient ni même si elles les reverraient un jour. Ils sont des milliers, enfants métis, à avoir été séparés de leur mère au Congo, au Rwanda et au Burundi. Pour cette politique de ségrégation et de séparation, la Belgique a été condamnée en 2024 pour crime contre l'humanité. Depuis plusieurs années, cette histoire émerge grâce au combat des personnes métisses qui réclament vérité et reconnaissance. Mais qu'en est-il des mamans ? Avec African futures lab, RFI a enquêté pour retrouver celles qui sont encore en vie. Des Grands Reportages de Florence Morice qui s'entretient avec Jacques Allix.

What if suffering is not a detour from life, but one of the places where meaning begins? In this episode of Leveraging Thought Leadership, Bill Sherman speaks with Dr. Suzan Song, MD, PhD, about instability, agency, and the human search for groundedness when life breaks open. Her work spans clinical care, global systems, conflict zones, and executive leadership. Her core question is simple and urgent: how do people move through suffering without losing themselves? Dr. Song shares the deeply personal origin of her work. After losing her father to violence as a teenager, she pushed forward through achievement, education, and service. Years later, while working with former child soldiers in Burundi, she found herself in danger and saw the connection between her past and her work. That moment helped her understand the deeper spark behind her mission. Her book, Why We Suffer, grew out of that mission. It is not a promise that life can be made painless. It is a practical look at how people can navigate hardship through narrative, ritual, purpose, connection, and agency. Dr. Song challenges the idea that healing is only individual. Across cultures, she has seen that people heal in relationship. The conversation also explores how instability shows up in leadership. CEOs, executive directors, governments, and communities are all facing rapid change. Funding shifts. Policy changes. War. Burnout. Cognitive fatigue. Dr. Song argues that the antidote to despair is not happiness. It is agency. Bill and Dr. Song discuss how thought leadership can be rooted in service, not ego. For Dr. Song, the work is not about claiming a label. It is about making ideas useful. It is about helping people, organizations, and systems respond to suffering with clarity, humility, and care. This episode is a powerful conversation for leaders, authors, speakers, consultants, and anyone trying to turn hard-earned experience into work that helps others. It asks us to look honestly at suffering. Then it asks an even more important question: what can we do with it? Three Key Takeaways: • Agency is the antidote to despair. When people face instability, the goal is not to force happiness. It is to find small, meaningful actions that restore a sense of control. • Suffering is both personal and collective. Hardship affects individuals, organizations, and communities. Healing often happens through connection, belonging, and shared support. • Resilience is more than pushing through. Real resilience comes from narrative, ritual, purpose, and relationships that help people make meaning and stay grounded during uncertainty. If this episode helped you think differently about instability and agency, listen to Episode 107 with David Komlos. That conversation explores how leaders tackle truly complex problems. You'll learn how to bring the right people and perspectives together, make better decisions, and move forward when there are no simple answers. It's a strong companion episode for anyone leading through uncertainty.

« Que demander à l'histoire ? », c'est la question du dossier du mois de mai de la revue « Esprit ». Anne-Lorraine Bujon, sa directrice et Emmanuel Laurentin, historien, homme de radio, un des conseillers de la rédaction de la publication, sont les invités de Pierre-Édouard Deldique pour tenter d'y répondre. Ce numéro rend hommage à l'historien, médiéviste Marc Bloch qui entrera au Panthéon le 23 juin 2026. Dans l'introduction de ce dossier, Emmanuel Laurentin s'interroge : « Mais pourquoi donc revient-on sans cesse à des ouvrages publiés il y a presque cent ans, dans une France qui a tant changé ? », allusion bien sûr à L'Étrange Défaite, le livre le plus connu de l'historien assassiné par les nazis en 1944, sans nul doute un des ouvrages les plus cités ces dernières années. L'histoire ? D'un côté, elle est convoquée pour légitimer des politiques, nourrir des identités, trancher des conflits mémoriels. De l'autre, elle est fragilisée, contestée, soupçonnée d'idéologie. Tout en rappelant qui fut Marc Bloch, Emmanuel Laurentin reprend donc la question que posait le grand intellectuel : « Que demander à l'histoire ? ». Celui-ci répondait en parlant de quête de vérité, de combat contre les fausses analogies, et de méfiance vers les leçons supposées de l'histoire. Le journaliste souligne en outre qu'un historien est l'homme de son époque et que le récit historique évolue au rythme des découvertes dans les archives notamment. Évoquant la vie de ce héros, au cours de l'émission, Anne-Lorraine Bujon et Emmanuel Laurentin font notamment référence à l'article de Cécile Vast qui narre le passé de résistant de Marc Bloch, sa vie de pensée et d'action. Dans ce dossier, les auteurs défendent une histoire qui ne soit ni un récit national figé, ni un catalogue de fautes à expier, mais un travail d'appréhension du passé échappant à la loi du présentisme (article de Michaël Foessel). En somme, la lecture de ce numéro de la revue Esprit nous indique que l'histoire fait montre d'une modestie éclairée. À noter, au fil de ses pages, un article de Jean-Pierre Chrétien en guise d'hommage à Marc Bloch. Celui-ci l'a aidé à comprendre l'histoire de l'Afrique du Rwanda et du Burundi. « Marc Bloch nous aide à ne pas oublier qu'en Afrique comme en Europe, l'utopie des origines traduit une réaction de fuite devant les défis historiques nouveaux », écrit-il.

In this episode of The Long Form Podcast, Dr. Adonia Ayebare discusses the hidden diplomacy behind the Uganda–Rwanda fallout, regional security in eastern Congo, and the future of Africa in an increasingly unstable global order. As Uganda's Ambassador to the United Nations and a longtime advisor to Yoweri Museveni, Dr. Ayebare offers a rare behind-the-scenes perspective on how power actually works in East Africa and at the UN.The conversation explores the role of Muhoozi Kainerugaba in repairing Uganda–Rwanda relations, the operations of the Uganda People's Defence Force in eastern Congo, the unresolved conflicts in Burundi and the Great Lakes region, and whether multilateral institutions like the United Nations still serve African states fairly. This is a deep discussion on diplomacy, geopolitics, power, conflict, and Africa's future in a world increasingly shaped by force rather than rules.Sponsors:Threat Informat - https://threatinformant.io/                                               Akagera Medicines- https://www.akageramedicines.com Join our Patreon to enjoy ad-free viewing https://www.patreon.com/cw/TheLongFormPod or support us via our MTN Mobile Money Code 95462 or directly to our phone number: +250795462739Visit Sanny Ntayombya's Official Website: https://sannyntayombya.comProduced by LF Media

Six years ago, Katya Zamarin's mother was murdered by a stranger who also maimed her Aunt Julia. More recently, her father died of a heart attack. He visits Katya in a dream, and she believes he wants her to head to Paris for a conference organized by his environmentalist hero. Katya's youngest sister, Arielle, a recovering addict and aspiring actress, tags along. And Aunt Julia, once an infamous soap opera star, flies to Paris when Arielle suffers an unexplained sleeping sickness. Everyone is grappling with survival, grief, and worry about the climate in these two entwined novellas about sisters, family, identity, and finding one's purpose. Listen to this interview about Marriage to the Sea: Linked Novellas (Four Way Books, 2026) Sarah Stone was born in San Francisco; her father was a professor of psychology and an environmental activist and her mother a collagist, assemblagist, and ceramic sculptor. Sarah studied art and creative writing at the University of California, Santa Cruz, and later got her MFA in Fiction from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. She has taught ESL in Bujumbura, Burundi, and in person and on TV in Seoul, South Korea.

In 2018, Andrew O'Brien nearly lost his leg — and with it, the belief that his body could ever carry him the way it once had. Today, he's running 26.2 miles in Cape Town on May 24th to raise money for Congolese refugees through UNHCR, fueled by a love for Africa that was born during his first visit to Cape Town in 2019, was deepened in the internally displaced camps of Goma in the DRC in 2024, and cemented in the refugee camps of Burundi in 2025. This is a comeback story, a mission, and a whole lot of heart — and we're so glad he's back on the show to share it.

Guest: Binta Diop, Former Special Envoy on Women, Peace and Security, African Union Host: Sumedha Tanwar, MPP Candidate, Harvard Kennedy School This episode of the CID Voices Road to GEM podcast examines the role of women in conflict resolution and peacebuilding across Africa. The conversation traces how women from the Mano River region, Burundi, and the DRC pushed their way into peace processes and shaped outcomes, from influencing peace accords to entrenching gender parity in constitutions. It explores the root causes of conflict on the continent, including poor governance, inequality, and lack of accountability, and asks why women remain largely absent from formal negotiations despite evidence of their impact. The discussion also turns to economic empowerment, particularly in agriculture, and what it would mean to reimagine international development around human capital and sustainable growth.

Send us Fan MailDr. Jennifer Harling, pediatrician and neonatologist who spent six years practicing in Burundi, one of the poorest countries in the world, shares what it took to introduce breast milk fortification, bubble CPAP, and revised sepsis protocols in a setting with nurse-to-patient ratios as high as one to forty and near-zero access to medical supplies. She reflects on the extraordinary obstacles of implementing quality improvement in resource-limited environments — from procurement failures to language barriers to training nurses with limited formal education — and explains why sustainability ultimately came down to the same thing it does everywhere: culture. She also turns the lens around and offers what may be the most universally applicable lesson she brought back from Burundi: slow down, and ask the parent what their number one concern is today.Support the showAs always, feel free to send us questions, comments, or suggestions to our email: nicupodcast@gmail.com.

We learn about a new injectable microgel to help reduce bleeding in infants who require surgical care. In a mice model, it reduced bleeding by at least 50%. Ashley Brown, Professor of Biomedical Engineering at North Carolina State University and UNC Chapel Hill tells presenter Claudia Hammond more about this new material her team has designed.Joined by Professor of Global Health and Epidemiology at Boston University in the US, Dr Matthew Fox, Claudia hears about a mystery illness that is being investigated by health officials in Burundi, which has caused five deaths and sickened thirty-five people. So far lab analysis of the illness - which causes fever, vomiting, and diarrhoea - has been negative for Ebola and Marburg viruses, Rift Valley fever, and others.We hear about influential analysis from Cochrane which has concluded that "breakthrough" Alzheimer's drugs are unlikely to benefit patients. Researchers said the impact was "well below" what was needed to make a difference to dementia patients' lives. However, their report has also provoked a vicious backlash from equally esteemed scientists who label it as fundamentally flawed.We're joined by health journalist Katie Silver in Mexico, who brings us the news that the President, Claudia Sheinbaum, has announced the details of a plan to introduce universal healthcare – no mean feat in country of 130 million people.And we hear about an experiment that was done by academics to see if they could trick AI chatbots into believing in an entirely fake disease.
