DR Congo: Time for the EU to exert sustained pressure on the Congolese President and his regime after deadly protests

PRESS RELEASE

3 January 2018

In order to prevent further escalation of violence and abuse in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), the European network for Central Africa (EurAc) calls on the European Union (EU) and its member states for sustained and concrete pressure on the Congolese President and his regime after protests, organised across the country by members of the Catholic church demanding Joseph Kabila to step down, turned deadly last Sunday.
