The agreement between the DRC and Rwanda marks an important step toward ending decades of conflict. I welcome US engagement that made this possible. For the deal to succeed, regional partners must be involved. The EU is ready to support both politically and economically.

The agreement reached between the #DRC & #Rwanda in Washington brings hope to hundreds of thousands displaced and a step toward regional stability. I call for unhindered humanitarian access so that the EU, together with its partners, can continue delivering vital aid.

L’accord RDC- Rwanda conclu à Washington est un message d’espoir pour des milliers de déplacés et un pas important vers la stabilité régionale. Un accès humanitaire sans entrave est essentiel pour permettre à l’UE et à ses partenaires de continuer à fournir une aide vitale.
