DRC-United Arab Emirates: "Any project that comes to transform the Congo will be welcome" (Félix Tshisekedi)
President Félix Tshisekedi welcomed the signing of a new mining partnership between the DRC and the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
He exchanged on Monday in Kinshasa with the Emirati Minister of State in charge of Foreign Affairs, Sheilk Shakhboot Nahyan Al Nahyan.
The head of Emirati diplomacy was at the head of a delegation that came to sign a partnership with the Société aurifère du Kivu et du Maniema (SAKIMA) on the exploitation of minerals.
According to the office of the Congolese president, Felix Tshisekedi was satisfied with the relations that exist between the United Arab Emirates and the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC).
“For me, it is the love of the country and the Congolese people that takes precedence. Any project that comes to transform Congo will be welcome,” he said, welcoming this new project.
In the process, he expressed the wish to see this new partnership be the beginning of a transformation that will affect the Congolese, particularly those in the east of the country who must benefit from the natural resources of their region.
“This project, with a total cost of more than 1.9 billion US dollars, will make it possible to set up more than 4 industrial mines which should connect the provinces of South Kivu and Maniema.
It will contribute to revolutionizing the eastern part of the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), more precisely Grand Kivu”, explained the presidency of the DRC.
The UAE delegation was made up of several private and public business leaders.
On the Congolese side, several business leaders and members of the government attended this ceremony, in particular the Deputy Prime Minister in charge of the interior, that of Defence, the Minister of Infrastructure and Public Works, the Ministers of Mines, Portfolio and Public Health.
