Qatar participated in the signing ceremony of the Peace Agreement between Rwanda and DR Congo, which took place in Washington on Friday. The peace deal was facilitated by USA.

Minister of State at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs HE Dr. Mohammed bin Abdulaziz bin Saleh Al Khulaifi represented Qatar at the signing ceremony.

The top official expressed Qatar’s happiness after the Agreement, as well as its commendation of the sincere will and genuine commitment demonstrated by both parties to the approach of peaceful and diplomatic solutions.

Al Khulaifi also expressed Qatar’s pride in contributing positively to facilitating the achievement of this agreement through hosting several negotiation sessions between the two parties, as a result of Doha’s hosting of the trilateral meeting between HH the Amir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, Rwandan President Paul Kagame and his Congolese counterpart Felix Tshisekedi on March 18, which constituted a significant milestone for direct dialogue and confidence-building between the two sides.

Al Khulaifi commended the constructive role played by USA in completing these efforts and reaching this significant Agreement, which is expected to enhance security and stability in the Great Lakes region.

The Qatari minister affirmed that these efforts were in support of the African Union’s mediation and the outcomes of the Joint Summit of the East African Community and the Southern African Development Community, which was held in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, on February 8.

In this regard, he expressed Qatar’s full readiness to collaborate with all regional and international partners to achieve lasting peace that benefits the peoples of the region.
