DR Congo Delegation Heads to Angola for Peace Talks Amid Escalating Conflict

#AngolaDiplomacy
The Democratic Republic of Congo is sending a delegation to Angola for crucial talks aimed at addressing the escalating conflict with the M23 rebels. Announced by the presidency on Sunday, these talks mark a significant step, facilitated by Angola's ongoing peace efforts. President Felix Tshisekedi, previously reluctant to engage with M23, is reconsidering his stance due to setbacks and diminishing regional support. While the Congo delegation is still being finalized, M23 has received an invitation, though their participation is pending confirmation. The historical context, mineral resource struggles, and recent escalations underscore the importance of these negotiations. President Joao Lourenco has announced a ceasefire set for midnight, urging all parties to halt hostilities.
