Riyadh, Saudi Arabia: The signing of a peace agreement between Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of the Congo has been welcomed by Saudi Arabia.
Facilitated by the United States with support from Qatar, this agreement aims to de-escalate tensions between the two nations.
The Saudi Ministry of Foreign Affairs praised the diplomatic efforts of the US and Qatar in bringing the two sides together for talks.
