DR Congo, Rwanda Peace Summit in Angola Cancelled as Talks Stall Last Minute | Firstpost Africa 

A peace summit between the Democratic Republic of Congo and Rwanda in Angola was unexpectedly called off after the latest talks to end the fighting in the eastern DR Congo stalled. The discussions between the two Central African neighbours stalled overnight after Rwanda demanded that the DR Congo open a direct dialogue with the Kigali-backed M23 rebel group, which has seized swathes of mineral-rich eastern DR Congo since 2021. This has quashed the hopes for an immediate peace deal in the region that is experiencing one of the worst humanitarian crises and torn apart by conflict for over 30 years. The DR Congo and Rwanda have both traded accusations for stalling the peace talks that were hosted by Angola. Angola has been designated by the African Union to mediate the talks between the two neighbours. However, the breakdown of these recent talks has raised several questions. Will DR Congo and Rwanda ever agree to a peace deal brokered by Angola? Watch the video to know more.
