Trump to sign Rwanda, DRC accord even as violence rages

Cape Argus

|

December 05, 2025

US PRESIDENT Donald Trump was yesterday expected to bring together the leaders of Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of Congo for what he will hail as his latest peace triumph despite ongoing violence on the ground.

Trump hopes the agreement will pave the way for the US to gain control over critical minerals in the eastern DRC, a violence-torn region home to many of the key ingredients in modern technologies such as electric cars.

Paul Kagame, the longtime president of Rwanda - which has taken a decisive edge on the ground against its turbulent neighbour - will meet alongside Trump with DR Congo President Felix Tshisekedi in the newly renamed Donald J Trump US Institute of Peace, which Trump shuttered as part of sweeping government cost-cutting.

The White House said that the two leaders would sign a peace agreement, more than five months after the countries’ foreign ministers also met Trump and announced another deal to end the conflict.
