Today, Prime Minister Dr. Edouard Ngirente met with Felix Moloua, Prime Minister and Head of Government of the Central African Republic, who is in Rwanda for an official visit.
The visit aims to strengthen the existing bilateral relations and cooperation between Rwanda and the Central African Republic.
Rwanda is one of the largest troop contributors to the United Nations Multidimensional Integrated Stabilization Mission in the Central African Republic (MINUSCA) since 2014.
In 2020, Rwanda deployed “force protection troops” to the Central African Republic, under an existing bilateral agreement on defense, at the time, officials said, the deployment is in response to the targeting of the Rwanda Defence Force (RDF) contingent under the UN Peacekeeping force by rebels supported by former President François Bozize.
