WASHINGTON (Reuters) -Rwanda and Democratic Republic of Congo signed a U.S.-brokered peace agreement on Friday, raising hopes for an end to fighting that has killed thousands and displaced hundreds of thousands more so far this year.
U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio hosted the two countries’ foreign ministers at the Department of State in Washington for the signing of the agreement.
