President Donald Trump will host the leaders of Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) on Dec. 4 to sign a peace agreement reached earlier this year, the White House said.

The agreement, dubbed the “Washington Accords,” was signed by both nations’ foreign ministers in June. The meeting is also expected to build on the economic framework outlined in August and November for regional economic integration.
