ON JOINT VISIT TO DR CONGO, UN AND WORLD BANK CHIEFS VOICE SUPPORT FOR
LATEST PEACE EFFORTNew York, May 22 2013 12:00PMIn the first visit of
its kind, Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon and World Bank President Jim
Yong Kim are in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) to support
a recent peace deal and promote economic development in the
long-troubled region.

"This is a critical moment for the Democratic Republic of the Congo
and the Great Lakes region," Mr. Ban told reporters in the capital,
Kinshasa, following a meeting with President Joseph Kabila.

The "unprecedented" joint visit is in support of the UN-brokered peace
agreement, which was signed in February by 11 African leaders and aims
to end the cycles of conflict and crisis in the eastern DRC and to
build peace in wider region.

"We believe it offers the best hope for peace in a generation," Mr.
Ban said. "But that agreement must translate into concrete actions. A
peace deal must deliver a peace dividend for people.

Coinciding with the visit, the World Bank Group today announced $1
billion in proposed new funding to help countries in the Great Lakes
provide better health and education services, generate more
cross-border trade, and fund hydroelectricity projects in support of
the peace deal.

"We made extraordinary efforts to secure an additional $1 billion in
funding because we believe this can be a major contributor to a
lasting peace in the Great Lakes region," Mr. Kim said.

"This funding will help revitalize economic development, create jobs,
and improve the lives of people who have suffered for far too long.
Now the leaders of the Great Lakes region, by restarting economic
activity and improving livelihoods in border areas, can boost
confidence, build economies, and give new opportunities for millions
of people."

In addition to meeting with President Kabila and other Government
officials, Mr. Ban and Mr. Kim will also meet parliamentarians and
representatives of civil society. As part of their visit, both men
will travel tomorrow to the eastern city of Goma.

Recent days have witnessed renewed clashes between rebels from the 23
March Movement (M23) and the DRC national armed forces in Goma, which
was the scene of intense fighting late last year.

In March, the UN deployed an intervention brigade within the existing
peacekeeping mission (MONUSCO) to bring added stability and protect
civilians in eastern DRC. The brigade is authorized to carry out
targeted offensive operations, with or without the Congolese national
army, against armed groups that threaten peace in that part of the
country.May 22 2013 12:00PM
