In December 2025, US President Donald Trump will host the leaders of Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) at the White House for the signing of a peace agreement. The agreement, brokered by Trump, aims to end years of fighting in eastern DRC, particularly involving the M23 rebels. The M23, primarily ethnic Tutsi, have been fighting the DRC government in North Kivu province, with the conflict rooted in the 1994 Rwandan genocide. Despite ongoing truce talks, violence has persisted, with accusations of Rwandan support for the M23, which Kigali denies. The agreement builds upon a preliminary peace agreement signed in June and a framework established in Qatar in November, seeking to resolve the conflict and foster economic cooperation.
