This afternoon at Urugwiro Village, President Kagame met with President Faustin-Archange Touadéra of the Central African Republic who is on a working visit to Rwanda. 

The two Heads of State discussed areas of ongoing bilateral cooperation including collaboration in addressing security challenges in the Central African Republic.

In December 2020, Rwanda deployed force protection troops to the Central African Republic, under an existing bilateral agreement on defense.

The Rwanda Defence Force is also one of the largest troop contributors to the United Nations Multidimensional Integrated Stabilization Mission in the Central African Republic (MINUSCA) since 2014. (End)
