Democratic Republic of Congo concludes first phase of peace talks with multiple rebel groups fighting in the African's country's volatile eastern regions for decades
"Nearly 30 delegates representing the armed groups of Ituri, North and South Kivu took part in these exchanges," Democratic Republic of Congo says, adding more meetings would follow in coming weeks.The Kinshasa government has concluded the first round of peace talks in Nairobi with representatives of several armed groups operating in the Democratic Republic of Congo's violence-torn east, the Congolese presidency said.
The mineral-rich African country is struggling to contain dozens of rebel groups in the east of the nation, many of which are a legacy of two regional wars a quarter of a century ago. The leaders of Kenya, Uganda, Burundi, Rwanda and the DRC last week said they were also looking at establishing a regional force to neutralise rebel groups operating in the region.
In a separate statement released on Thursday, the Kenyan presidency "called on different armed groups in DR Congo to lay down their weapons and work with President Felix Tshisekedi in nurturing peace and stability."
