HISTORIC Peace Deal aimed at ending years of BLOOD Feud |Trump takes Credit as U.S Eyes Key Minerals [Video]

HISTORIC Peace Deal aimed at ending years of BLOOD Feud |Trump takes Credit as U.S Eyes Key Minerals

In a historic U.S.-brokered deal, D.R. Congo and Rwanda have signed a peace agreement in Washington, witnessed by U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio. Trump hailed it as a “glorious triumph,” though critics argue it may serve U.S. interests in Congo’s mineral-rich east. The deal includes a trade framework for critical minerals, but M23 rebels reject its legitimacy. With thousands killed and millions displaced, experts warn that without inclusive enforcement and reforms, peace may remain elusive in the volatile Great Lakes region. #CongoRwandaPeace #GreatLakesRegion #TrumpDiplomacy #PeaceDeal #M23Rebels #MineralPolitics #USBrokeredDeal #WashingtonAgreement #MarcoRubio #EasternCongoCrisis #CongoConflict #RwandaTensions #AfricanPeace #TrumpPeacePush #CriticalMinerals #ResourceConflict #DRCongoNews #RwandaNews #USForeignPolicy #CongoWar #M23Crisis #PeaceWithCaveats #Geopolitics #HumanRights #AfricaConflict #CongoRwandaDeal #TrumpSpeech #NobelPrizeComment #TruthSocialPost #EthnicViolence #PeaceVsProfit Also Read M23 Rebels and Rwandan Forces Close Goma Airport Amid Escalating Conflict :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/rebels-enter-outskirts-of-goma-close-airport-eastern-congo-011-4054023.html?ref=DMDesc Rwanda Readies Hope Hostel for UK Migrants After Bill Approval :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/rwanda-prepares-to-welcome-uk-migrants-011-3808459.html?ref=DMDesc Explained | How Will Indian Illegal Migrants In The UK Be Affected By The Rwanda Deportation Plan? :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/explained-how-will-indian-illegal-migrants-in-the-uk-be-affected-by-the-rwanda-deportation-plan-3807059.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.103~HT.408~GR.124~

"Glorious Triumph" Trump Hails ‘Historic’ Peace Deal Between DR Congo and Rwanda | White House

In a landmark diplomatic moment, DR Congo and Rwanda signed a historic U.S.-brokered peace deal in Washington aimed at ending decades of deadly conflict. President Donald Trump called it a “glorious triumph” while hosting the signing ceremony in the Oval Office, flanked by VP JD Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio. The agreement includes “disengagement, disarmament and conditional integration” of armed groups and signals potential U.S. access to DR Congo’s rare earth minerals. Yet deep questions remain—especially regarding the M23 rebels, Rwandan troop presence, and humanitarian access. With both countries denying support for rival militias, the full terms remain classified, fueling skepticism. Trump, however, hailed it as a generational victory. Previous similar treaties have failed. But this deal, supported by earlier Qatari mediation, might offer a sliver of hope in a region long marred by instability and mineral-fueled warfare. #TrumpPeaceDeal #DRCongo #Rwanda #WashingtonTreaty #TrumpDiplomacy #PeaceTriumph #TrumpInAfrica #RareEarthAccess #RwandaConflict #CongoCrisis #MineralDeal #TrumpOvalOffice #JDVance #PaulKagame #Tshisekedi #M23Rebels #FDLR #AfricaPeaceDeal #TrumpVictory #USInAfrica ~HT.318~ED.102~GR.122~
