GOMA, Congo (AP) — The end of one of the world’s deadliest and yet most shadowy wars is as difficult to predict as the end of the large peacekeeping force meant to contain it. Congo desperately wants stability in its mineral-rich east. But political friction means the government wants the longtime United Nations peacekeeping force there to get out. That would leave the vast region with dozens of armed groups having less defense for millions of displaced civilians. But frustration is so high with the peacekeepers that many Congolese want them gone, too.
