Last Sunday, the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) and Rwanda came to an agreement on a draft mining cooperation framework. The signing is expected to happen in October. With all the recent conflict in the DRC between 2022 and 2025 involving Rwanda, the M23 group and their allies took over mineral deposits in the eastern DRC. Then, in June, the countries signed a peace deal, and in August, some of those groups were put under international sanctions. This project focuses on foreign partners, as both countries will work with the US to reform the mining sector and apply OECD (Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development) standards. In any case, any efforts to reduce tension will still be worth it. It will bring back investment, taxes, and jobs. It will also mean the end of using primitive technologies and heavy manual labor by locals. Devils Below
