UN Secretary-General António Guterres welcomed the signing of the Washington Peace Accords between the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Rwanda, brokered by the United States.
He congratulated Presidents Felix Tshisekedi and Paul Kagame on this important milestone and praised the efforts of President Donald Trump.
"The Secretary-General stressed that these agreements represent a critical step towards restoring trust between the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Rwanda and advancing efforts to achieve lasting peace in the eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo," said a statement issued on behalf of the UN chief by his spokesman, Stephane Dujarric.
The UN chief also welcomed the significant progress achieved in both the Doha process and the African Union-led process. He called on all parties to fulfill their commitments, including the ceasefire stipulated in Security Council resolution 2773 (2025).
The Secretary-General said the United Nations stands ready to continue to support all efforts to achieve peace and stability in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and the region.
