Africa Live: Kagame agrees to meet Tshisekedi over eastern DRC crisis - BBC News | |
(about 4 hours later) | |
Rwanda's President Paul Kagame has agreed to meet with his Democratic Republic of the Congo counterpart Felix Tshisekedi to discuss the ongoing crisis in eastern Congo, the Angolan government has said. | |
The agreement followed a meeting on Monday in Angola's capital Luanda between Mr Kagame and Angolan President João Lourenço, the African Union's (AU) mediator in the DR Congo crisis. | |
"It was decided that President Kagame would agree to meet President Tshisekedi on a date to be indicated by the mediator," Angola's Foreign Minister Tete Antonio told the press after the meeting. | |
Mr Antonio said that both Rwanda and the DR Congo had agreed to hold the meeting, with ministerial delegations from both sides working toward the plan. | |
Rwanda's presidency said on X that the two leaders "agreed on key steps towards addressing the root causes of the conflict". | |
President Kagame's trip to Angola follows a similar visit by Mr Tshisekedi to Luanda last month, during which it was announced that the DR Congo leader had agreed to meet with his Rwandan counterpart. | |
But Mr Tshisekedi demanded the withdrawal of Rwandan troops from the Congolese territory before meeting President Kagame, the DR Congo presidency said. | |
Fighting between M23 rebels and Congolese forces has flared in the DR Congo's east, displacing more than 100,000 people in recent weeks, according to the UN. | |
DR Congo has accused Rwanda of backing M23 rebels, an accusation that Kigali denies. | |
