Congolese President Tshisekedi delivered a national speech on the evening of the 27th, announcing the official launch of a national dialogue aimed at promoting peace, national unity and national reconstruction. Tshisekedi said that according to the plan, consultations will first be held in the Congolese provinces, followed by a national conference in the capital Kinshasa. The dialogue process will be completed within 3 months. Eventually, a “national pact” on peace, unity and national reconstruction will be adopted, and relevant mechanisms will be established to monitor and implement the results of the dialogue. Tshisekedi also said that in the next few days he will sign a presidential decree to establish the National Dialogue Organizing Committee to determine the specific methods and main stages of the dialogue. Tshisekedi said that the eastern part of the Congo has faced a security crisis for a long time, many armed groups are active, and conflicts over land and ethnic groups have repeatedly arisen. Many previous political agreements have failed to address the underlying causes of repeated crises in the country.
