M23 rebels issue demands ahead of direct talks with Kinshasa
Members of the M23 rebel group supervise the exit of mercenary troops in the streets of Goma amid conflict between them and the Armed Forces of the Democratic Republic of the Congo (FARDC) in Goma, eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo on January 29, 2025.
Congolese rebels M23 say they will send a delegation to Luanda, Angola for talks with the government of President Felix Tshisekedi, even though they warned they could pull a plug if Kinshasa does not clarify its attendance.
The Congo River Alliance (to which the M23 belongs) said it had sent a five-member delegation to Luanda on Monday to take part in the talks with the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) government slated for Tuesday.
