A tense moment was witnessed between President of the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) Felix Tshisekedi and French President Emmanuel Macron during a joint press conference held in Kinshasa on Saturday.

Tshisekedi stated that France and the West should abandon their imperious attitude towards Africa.

"Look at us differently by respecting us, by considering us as true partners and not always with a paternalistic look with the idea of always knowing what is necessary for us," Tshisekedi said, wagging his finger at Macron.

"Francafrique no longer exists. We must establish a policy of equals."
