Áhá! Szóval ezért volt korábban Lumumba utca a Róna utca! Köszi!
17th January 1961: Patrice Lumumba killed with Belgian and US backing

Patrice Lumumba (pictured above) was a Pan-Africanist Congolese indeoendence leader who served as Prime Minister of the Democratic Republic of the Congo from its independence in June 1960, to September of that year when he was killed by Katangan authorities with the help of the Belgian and American governments. He led the Mouvement National Congolais (MNC) party from 1958 until his death. From a young age, Lumumba took a progressive, anti-imperialist viewpoint, studying the works of Jean-Jacques Rousseau and Voltaire.

After his release from prison, he helped found the Mouvement National Congolais (MNC) party and became it’s leader. The MNC promoted a platform of independence, Africanization of the government, state-led economic development, and neutrality in foreign affairs. Lumumba had a large popular following due to his charisma, oratorical skills and ideological sophistication. In October 1959 he was arrested and sentenced to 69 months in prison for his anti-colonial activities, however during his imprisonment the MNC won the local elections in the Congo and - due to pressure from MNC delegates - he was released from prison.

Lumumba attended the Congolese Round Table Conference to decide the future of the Congo. The conference declared independence for the Congo, and the MNC won the subsequent elections, forming a government with Lumumba as Prime Minister. Lumumba gave a speech on Independence day - 30th June - which received much backlash from western journalists:
For this independence of the Congo, although being proclaimed today by agreement with Belgium, an amicable country, with which we are on equal terms, no Congolese worthy of the name will ever be able to forget that it was by fighting that it has been won, a day-to-day fight, an ardent and idealistic fight, a fight in which we were spared neither privation nor suffering, and for which we gave our strength and our blood. We are proud of this struggle, of tears, of fire, and of blood, to the depths of our being, for it was a noble and just struggle, and indispensable to put an end to the humiliating slavery which was imposed upon us by force.

Shortly after his election, there was a mutiny in the army. The Congolese army was still made up of the Force Publique, an organisation created by the Belgian government to enforce it’s policies of slavery on the Congolese. Many Force Publique officers were Belgians who had supported the colonial government. In response, Lumumba’s government Africanised the army and re-named it to the Armée Nationale Congolaise. The Belgian government intervened, sending 6,000 troops, officially to protect their citizens from the violence. The next day the Belgian Navy bombarded Matadi after evacuating European citizens, killing 19 Congolese. This renewed hostilities, leading to Congolese attacks on Europeans and military intervention by the Belgian Army. The Belgian government, along with mining companies, supported an uprising in Katanga against Lumumba. Though Lumumba’s request for help from the UN was accepted, UN peacekeeping forces were innefective in stopping the violence.

After seeing the UN’s inneffectiveness, on the 14th July Lumumba sent a telegram to Soviet Premier Nikita Krushchev asking for aid in the form of arms, food, medical supplies and vehicles. His request was accepted, much to the alarm of the West, especiallt the United States. 10 days later Lumumba attempted to hold meeting with U.S. officials, but President Eisenhower was on vacation at the time and his talks with Secretary of State Christian Herter yielded no positive results. Lumumba demanded that UN peacekeeping forces intervene, but was denied. In response, Lumumba drew closer to the Soviet Union and the possibility of Soviet intervention became increasingly likely.

After much confusion, debate and denounciation in the Congolese government, Lumumba was granted emergency powers by a joint session of the Senate and Assembly. The Colonel and Chief of staff of the army Mobutu organised a coup d'etat with the backing of the Belgian Army, ousting Lumumba and placing him under house arrest. The UN subsequently recognisde Mobutu’s government, and Lumumba fled to Leopoldville. With logistical support from the United States and Belgium, Mobutu’s troops captured Lumumba on 1st December. UN forces did not intervene.

Lumumba was moved to Thysville military barracks were he was starved in accordance with Mobutu’s orders. In Lumumba’s last documented letter, he wrote to Rajeshwar Dayal: “in a word, we are living amid absolutely impossible conditions; moreover, they are against the law”. He was then physically restrained whilst being flown to Elizabethville, where he was subsequently beaten and tortured. On the 17th January 1961, Lumumba was driven to an isolated spot and shot by firing squad. A commission of inquiry found that 4 Belgian officers were present at the time and largely responsible for overseeing the exectution. Lumumba’s body was dismembered, dissolved in sulfuric acid and the bones were ground and scattered.

According to the 2001 Belgian Commission investigating Lumumba’s assassination, (1) Belgium wanted Lumumba arrested, (2) Belgium was not particularly concerned with Lumumba’s physical well being, and (3) although informed of the danger to Lumumba’s life, Belgium did not take any action to avert his death. Ludo De Witte found written orders from the Belgian government requesting Lumumba’s execution and documents on various arrangements, such as death squads. In February 2002, the Belgian government apologized to the Congolese people, and admitted to a “moral responsibility” and “an irrefutable portion of responsibility in the events that led to the death of Lumumba”

Declassified documents show that the US had previously plotted to kill Lumumba, with a vial of poison being brought to the Congo before the plan was abandoned. Many communications by Larry Devlin, CIA Station Chief for the Congo, urged elimination of Lumumba. Devlin also helped to direct the search to capture Lumumba, was involved in arranging Lumumba’s transfer to Katanga, and the CIA base chief in Elizabethville was in direct contact with the killers the night Lumumba was killed.
