Title: The Nairobi Peace Process: Where are we?
Introduction :
For several months, the Nairobi peace process has been engaged with the aim of ending the security crisis in the east of the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). Commitments have been made by all parties involved, but where are we today? What are the concrete results and next steps of this process? In this article, we will take stock of the progress of the Nairobi peace process.
Analysis of the peace process:
The facilitator of the process, having called for support for dialogue as a lasting solution, assessed the implementation of the commitments made by the Congolese government, the regional force of the EAC, MONUSCO and other structures involved. This assessment, carried out in July, gives us an overview of the current situation.
Arrival of the SADC Force:
One of the measures announced in the peace process was the arrival of the SADC (Southern African Development Community) Force to neutralize the M23 rebels. However, it is important to note that so far there has been no concrete information on the deployment of this regional force. It is therefore necessary to follow developments in this regard closely.
Proposal for dialogue with the M23:
An important proposal in the peace process is that of the Ugandan President, who suggests a dialogue with the M23 to resolve the security crisis. The Congolese government will have to take a position on this proposal and decide on the way forward. It is interesting to note that the High Representative of the President of the Republic, Serge Tshibangu, will be the special guest of Dialogue between Congolese to discuss this issue.
Conclusion :
The Nairobi peace process continues to raise questions about its implementation and its concrete results. It is essential that all stakeholders remain engaged and transparent to achieve a lasting resolution to the crisis in eastern DRC. Closely following the developments and the decisions taken during the dialogue between Congolese will be crucial to understand the evolution of the situation
