I would like to renew the heartfelt appeal of Pope Francis to “the conscience and the responsibility of the national authorities and of the international community, to take appropriate and timely decisions to rescue [the people of the DRC].” Only with coordinated and constant efforts at the local, national, regional and international levels will we be able to put an end to the humanitarian and human rights crisis in the DRC and
effectively protect the rights and dignity of the Congolese people.
