Trump says the United States is shortly before a Congo-Rwanda peace agreement is placed

On Wednesday, President Trump claimed that his government was about the war between Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of Congo, two African nations with a long history of the conflict, shortly before the peace of mediation. He made the comments at an oval office meeting with South African President Cyril Ramaphosa.

Mr. Trump said that Massad Boulos, the head of the Foreign Ministry for Africa and the father -in -law of Tiffany Trump, contributed to regulating the war. Mr. Boulos, who worked at the meeting of the Oval Office, said that Rwanda and Congo had submitted both peace agreements, which had been evaluated by the Trump administration and brought together in a concluded agreement.

The conflict between the Congo and its much smaller neighbor East, Rwanda, has been cooked for three decades. The most recent invasion of the Congo by the M23 militia supported by Rwanda began at the end of 2021.

In an interview in February, Felix Tshisekedi, the President of Congo, offered the United States and Europe access to the huge mineral assets of his country and asked for help to claim Rwanda to withdraw from the east of the Congo. Mr. Boulos traveled to Congo last month, whereupon the Congo and Rwanda signed a document that undertaken to work on peace and work with US investors, especially for mining and infrastructure projects.

Fights are still raging in the eastern Congo, where M23 has confiscated territory swaths. During the meeting, Mr. Ramaphosa spoke about various international efforts to achieve an armistice and said that South Africa, the troops contributed to a regional force, removed his soldiers so that peace could prevail.

“All efforts, including those from outside the continent and the continent, are really worth it,” he said to Mr. Trump.
