Belgium and Rwanda Resume Relations After Dispute Over DR Congo
Belgium and Rwanda have resumed diplomatic relations eighteen months after severing ties due to a dispute over the conflict in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo. The two nations expelled each other's diplomats in March 2025 following deteriorating relations linked to the war in their neighbor, where M23 rebels have seized significant territory with alleged Rwandan support. Meanwhile, British Prime Minister Andy Burnham announced plans to establish AI security standards during the UK's 2027 G20 presidency, contrasting with US President Donald Trump's stance against regulation. Additionally, the United States denied a visa to Sudanese de facto leader General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan for the UN General Assembly, citing conditions related to a ceasefire and questioning the legitimacy of both warring factions.
