Communiqué of the Chairperson of the African Union Commission on the grave situation in Eastern DRC
January 25, 2025, Addis Ababa: The Chairperson of the African Union Commission, Moussa Faki Mahamat, is following with great attention the deteriorating security and humanitarian situation in the East of the Democratic Republic of Congo.
He notes with deep concern the threats that such developments pose to the tireless and significant efforts undertaken within the framework of the two African mechanisms, notably the Luanda process led by President Joao Manuel Lourenço, President of the Republic of Angola.
He expresses his unreserved support for such efforts, which are the only way to resolve the persistent tension between the Democratic Republic of Congo and the Republic of Rwanda, on the one hand, and between the Government of the DRC and its political-military opposition, on the other.
He calls for the strict observance of the ceasefire agreed between the parties and the immediate cessation of all hostilities.
He strongly urges the parties to preserve the lives of civilians.
He launches an urgent appeal to the international community to mobilize all possible support for the populations affected by the serious collateral damage of this expanding war.
