DAKAR, Senegal — Representatives from Congo and Rwanda have signed the text of a peace agreement between the two countries in Washington, according to a joint press release from the nations and the U.S. State Department on Wednesday.

Congo has accused Rwanda of backing M23 rebels in the east of the country. U.N. experts says the rebels are supported by about 4,000 troops from the neighboring nation.

The decades-long conflict escalated in January , when the M23 rebels advanced and seized the strategic Congolese city of Goma, followed by the town of Bukavu in February.

“The Agreement includes provisions on respect for territorial integrity and a prohibition of hostilities; disengagement, disarmament, and conditional integration of non-state armed groups,” said the statement posted to the State Department’s website.

The agreement signed included a commitment to respecting territorial integrity and the conditional integration of non-state armed groups. Both sides also committed to a ministerial-level meeting next week and invited the leaders of both countries to attend.


This is not the first time peace talks have been held. Talks hosted by Qatar in April fell apart.
Corneille Nangaa, leader of the Congo River Alliance, a coalition of rebel groups, told The Associated Press in April that international sanctions and Congo’s proposed minerals deal with the United States in search of peace would not stop the fighting .
M23 is one of about 100 armed groups that have been vying for a foothold in mineral-rich eastern Congo near the border with Rwanda. The conflict has created one of the world’s worst humanitarian crises and has displaced more than 7 million people.

As my Nan used to say, "I'll believe it when I see it".

As a few here do, I amuse myself with crapper troll bating because everything else is still smoke & mirrors. Until it isn't.

BTW
Because of all the shit, I no longer read every post.
So not sure if it's been discussed that Zijin don't need a peace agreement to mine. And never have.

BTW2
Finally sorted my Automic shit yesterday, so could one of you on the inside, Geo, whoever, tell these MoFos to get a shift on.

Agreed. But my excitement meter will go into overdrive if, as I expect (including wish for, hope for, pray for) an announcement of further suspension until the 27th.

This peace signing will surely satisfy the DRC for the US part of the minerals for security deal, hopefully giving the green light for someone to buy Manono.

However we need to keep in mind that an agreement between AVZ and Kobald (or whoever else) needs to be reached.
They may well be lowballing and leaning back in their chairs telling AVZ they have no one else offering.

It's also possible of course that an agreement has already been reached and they're just waiting for the green light, and IMO this is what has happened.

Of course, not discounting the possibility of an agreement reached for the sale of our assets.

Again, good luck everyone.

Was wondering why Qatar is involved in peace talks between US, Rwanda and DRC? Must be something in it for them??
Qatar and the US are strategic allies

Just to remind, here is the recent deal they made in May 2025.


Nice deal, plenty of mula to make a deal with AVZ manono....;)

They're such good mates that Qatar sent Trump home in his own shiny new jet.

Lets hope when the final payment is made for Manono its in USD$ and that the arse has fallen out of the AUD$ on conversion.

Not likely. The USD has been in a 2 year decline and continuing. With rising debt in the trillions I don't see it bouncing back for quite some time.
