Trump Ends 30 Year Rwanda Congo Conflict and Secures Major U.S. Minerals Deal

In a major foreign-policy breakthrough, President Trump has formally ended the 30-year Rwanda–Congo conflict - a regional war that multiple administrations failed to stop. With one stroke of the pen, Trump brokered a peace agreement and immediately followed it with a massive critical-minerals deal, positioning the United States to finally benefit from one of the world’s richest mineral regions. The agreement opens the door for American access to essential resources like cobalt and lithium - key components for electronics, defense systems, and U.S. manufacturing. Trump says the deal will boost American jobs, reduce reliance on China, and bring “stability and prosperity” to central Africa. A decades-long conflict brought to an end - and a strategic win for U.S. energy and national security.
