DR Congo, Rwanda 'Committed to End Political Crisis'
Top diplomats from Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) and Rwanda, who met in Luanda under the mediation of Angola, decided to maintain the path of dialogue for the solution to the political tension between the two countries.
Tension between both countries has grown in recent months, after the resumption of fighting between the DRC army and the M23 movement last March, in which the DRC authorities accuse neighbouring country Rwanda of fueling the conflict.
"We have agreed with the DRC and Rwanda that next Saturday the intelligence services of the two countries and that of Angola will meet in Luanda", said João Lourenço, speaking at the Meeting of the Bureau of the Assembly of the African Union (AU) ), held by videoconference.
"The intention is for the parties to ascertain, from a technical point of view, what is really happening on the ground", and insisted that "the parties must dialogue".
