Trump's other peace deals--in Africa

Trump did another peace deal while we were watching Iran's nuclear storage bombing on Saturday evening. It's not the two I was watching (South Sudan and Ethiopia Civil wars), but still worthy of note. The media really don't care about those black lives.
"President Donald J. Trump has brokered a peace agreement between the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) and Rwanda, marking a significant diplomatic achievement in Africa. This deal aims to end one of the continent’s deadliest and longest-running conflicts, characterized by violent bloodshed and instability.Trump announced the breakthrough on his social media platform, Truth Social, crediting the efforts of Secretary of State Marco Rubio in facilitating the treaty.

The agreement represents a potential turning point for regional stability and peace in Central Africa.
This development has also drawn international attention, with Pakistan reportedly nominating Trump for the 2026 Nobel Peace Prize for his diplomatic efforts, although this nomination is separate from the Congo-Rwanda deal.

Notably, India has disputed Trump’s claims of involvement in resolving the India-Pakistan conflict, asserting that bilateral talks were conducted directly between the two nations."
