WASHINGTON (AA) - The Democratic Republic of Congo and Rwanda on Thursday signed a "historic" US-brokered peace and economic agreement seeking to end fighting in restive eastern Congo.
"Today, we commit to stopping decades of violence and bloodshed, and to begin a new era of harmony and cooperation between the Democratic Republic of Congo and Rwanda," Trump said ahead of the signing ceremony in Washington, DC, with both Congo President Felix Tshisekedi and Rwandan President Paul Kagame taking part.
When asked when troops will leave Congo, Trump said: “I think you're going to see very quick and very quickly."
Trump said both Tshisekedi and Kagame are "great leaders."
"I think you'll see very immediate results. I have confidence that that's what's going to happen," he added.
