On Friday, four sources told Reuters that Qatar had organized a second cycle of negotiations between the Democratic Congo and Rwanda.
The sources have indicated that Qatari officials gathered separately with representatives of the rebels supported by Rwanda, who have checked several regions of the Congo Docratic Eastern.
Reuters cited two government sources of the Republic of Congo saying that the Qatari mediators had had joint talks between Congolese officials and the Rwandans, while they held individual meetings with representatives of the rebels.
The state of Qatar had started mediation between the contradictory parties of the Democratic Republic of Congo, where the emir of the State of Qatar, Sheikh Tamim Bin Hamad Al Thani, met the chiefs of Rwanda and the Congo in the first direct discussions between them since the start of the new conflict at the end of last January.
After the tripartite meeting in Doha on March 19, the leaders published a joint declaration declaring their commitment to the immediate and unconditional ceasefire.
According to a joint declaration, the presidents of Rwanda and Congo expressed their thanks to the state of Qatar and its emir for organizing this fruitful meeting, which helped to strengthen confidence between the two countries, and confirmed the joint commitment to a safe and stable future of the Democratic Republic of Congo and the region.
Qatari mediation aimed at reaching peace in the region has been widely welcomed because the United Nations secretary general welcomed the efforts made by Doha to achieve stability in African countries.
The African Union has also expressed its support and welcome to the mediation of Qatar, stressing that it will contribute to reaching peace by diplomacy and dialogue.
In conjunction with the mediation that Qatar plays, the Angolan president Joao Lorenso announced the withdrawal of his country from his role as mediator in the peace process, linked to the east of the Democratic Republic of Congo.
Angola said that she prefers to focus her efforts on her current African Union presidency, a position that requires general attention to continental and international issues.
The conflict in eastern Congo is due to competition for mineral wealth.
The conflict has increased since last January, when thousands of people were killed and hundreds of thousands were forced to get out of their homes.
