Why it matters

Signed the December 4, 2025 Washington Accords with Rwanda (Trump witness): Rwandan troop withdrawal and end of M23 support in exchange for FDLR neutralization.
Cobalt and copper boom funds the budget; growth ~5-6% but almost entirely mining-driven and Kinshasa-captured.
Security forces and Wazalendo militias commit abuses; journalists and activists harassed; the east suffers massacres by M23, ADF, and others.
US minerals-for-security partnership talks; SADC military mission deployed 2023–2025; cooling relations with Rwanda; EAC membership strained.
