President Donald Trump’s White House on Friday celebrated a peace deal signing between Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of the Congo, an event that is ending three decades of war between the neighbors.

Vice President JD Vance praised Trump’s role, “If I think about what I know about these two countries, for 30 years, pretty much the entire time that I can remember these two countries being in the news, much of the story has been about them fighting one another, about them killing one another. And now, we can look forward to a future where my children will look at this moment as the beginning of a new story, a story of prosperity and peace.”

The U.S., under Trump, brokered the agreement, described as an attempt to end bloodshed in that part of the work.

Reports noted the agreement allows the U.S. to access the DRC’s gold, copper and lithium deposits for development.

Trump said, “This is a tremendous breakthrough. In a few short months, we’ve now achieved peace between India and Pakistan, India and Iran, and the DRC and Rwanda, and a couple of others, also.”
