HISTORIC: President Trump Brokers Peace Between Rwanda and Congo, Ending 30 Year War

The man is a modern day miracle.

President Trump is currently facilitating a peace deal between Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of Congo. President Tshisekedi intends to nominate President Trump for a Nobel Peace Prize for finally bringing peace to his country.

“We reached out to Biden several times for help. He ignored us.”

President Trump on Friday celebrated the signing of a U.S.-brokered peace agreement between the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Rwanda, marking the end of a deadly conflict that has spanned nearly three decades.
Officials from both countries signed the agreement in Washington this week.

“So we’re here today to celebrate a glorious triumph, and that’s what it is, for the cause of peace,” Mr. Trump said in the Oval Office. “This is a long time waiting. The signing of a historic peace agreement between the Democratic Republic of the Congo and the Republic of Rwanda. The conflict has continued and it’s been going on for many, many years. It’s been going from, I guess they say 30 years.”

The region has been unstable for decades, and conflict in eastern Congo has led to thousands of deaths recently, and about 6 million deaths over the last three decades, according to the Council on Foreign Relations. The conflict has spawned a humanitarian crisis and widespread displacement in eastern DRC.

Look how the Washington Post reported it: “Trump seeks crown…”

These people are truly the scum of the earth.
