Doha, Qatar: The Shura Council convened Monday at its headquarters and commended the visit of the Amir HH Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al-Thani to the Republic of Rwanda, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and the Republic of South Africa, alongside his participation in the G20 Summit 2025 in Johannesburg.

The council emphasized the visit showcased clear political indications of Qatar's growing role in supporting stability and strengthening dialogue pathways across Africa.

The discussions held by His Highness, alongside the progress that was made in the Doha Framework for the Peace Agreement between the Government of the Democratic Republic of the Congo and the Congo River Alliance / March 23 Movement (M23), and the Declaration of Principles signed between them in Doha last July, demonstrate Doha's standing as a credible party that contributes to easing tensions and laying the groundwork for security at a time regional and global challenges are heightening, the council underlined.

In this regard, the council welcomed the outcomes of this visit, including the signing of memoranda of understanding in a range of fields, along with the declaration of new investment partnerships and the global commendation of Qatar's supportive role in the peace process between the DRC government and M23.
