AU chair appeals for DRC peace
Addis Ababa - The African Union (AU) Council chair Alpha Oumar Konare expressed serious concern on Tuesday over attacks on various targets in the capital of the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), Kinshasa, over the weekend.

"I am pleased that the attempt to destabilise the transitional institution of the DRC, at a time the country is pursuing its national reconciliation, has failed," Konare said.

"I appeal to all Congolese parties to the peace and national reconciliation process and to the Congolese people to remain united in order to bring the ongoing transition to completion," Konare said.

Konare reiterated his personal commitment and that of the entire AU Commission "to continue to support Congolese in their difficult but exalting endeavour to build a new all-inclusive, united, democratic, prosperous, and reconciled Congo".
