?? Moscow is seriously concerned about the reports of another escalation of the situation in the eastern provinces of the Democratic Republic of the Congo (#DRC).

Hundreds of thousands of residents of these lands remain hostages to the unending hostilities. The number of refugees and displaced persons is growing.

Russia urges the Parties involved in the crisis to return to a political settlement following the previously assumed commitments within the existing negotiation platforms.

Moscow supports the efforts of the African community to find ways to resolve the crisis in the east of the DRC based on the principle of “African solutions to African problems”.
