The United Kingdom made a big choice about Rwanda. The UK said Rwanda helps fighters called M23 who have taken over cities in another country called Congo. The UK told Rwanda it must stop helping these fighters and leave Congo.

The UK will do many things to make Rwanda listen. They will not go to important Rwanda meetings anymore. They will not help Rwanda sell things. They will not give money to Rwanda's government but will still help hungry people there. They might punish some people who work for Rwanda. They stopped teaching Rwanda's army new things. They checked what army stuff they sold to Rwanda.

The UK said Rwanda might feel unsafe, but fighting is never the right answer. The UK wants everyone to talk and fix problems with words instead of weapons. The UK believes people from Congo must speak with the M23 fighters.

Many other countries and groups, like the United Nations, also told Rwanda to stop fighting. The UK used to be friends with Rwanda, but this fight changed things. The UK might do more to make Rwanda listen if they keep fighting.

Rwanda says they did nothing wrong. They say bad people inside Congo want to hurt them, and they must protect themselves. Many important groups around the world want everyone to stop fighting and start talking.
