Angola announces possible negotiations between DRC and AFC M23 the entourage

The conflict in the east of the Democratic Republic of Congo was again at the center of discussions between Félix Tshisekedi and his Angolan counterpart João Lourenço, Tuesday March 11 in Luanda. Angola, which ensures mediation in this crisis, announced its intention to open talks between Kinshasa and the AFC-M23 armed group. According to the Angolan Presidency, contacts will be established with AFC-M23 to organize direct negotiations with Kinshasa in the coming days. But this announcement arouses questions. The DRC is content to “take note” for the moment and is waiting to see the concrete modalities, especially since several gray areas remain.
