Belgium and Rwanda have resumed diplomatic relations 18 months after breaking ties due to a dispute over the conflict in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo.
Belgian Foreign Minister Maxime Prevot and Rwanda's foreign ministry both posted the news on X alongside photos of Prevot and his Rwandan counterpart Olivier Nduhungirehe in New York, where the United Nations General Assembly is taking place.
They also thanked Qatar for facilitating a first meeting in June 2025 and said they planned to reopen their respective embassies soon.
Prevot wrote on X that this was an important step "in a world marked by growing tensions".
"Restoring diplomatic relations between states does not mean abandoning our position, but having structured channels for dialogue, and I will continue to defend the territorial integrity and sovereignty of the DRC," he said.
