Sandor Lyle, the Senior Presidential Press Secretary, said that while in Bujumbura, the President will also engage in various bilateral talks with his counterparts from within the region.

“His Excellency will also attend the 11th high-level meeting of the regional oversight mechanism of the peace, security, and cooperation framework for the DRC and the region,” said Sandor.

Currently, East American standby forces are deployed to supervise and ensure the ceasefire is successfully implemented.
