We congratulate our founding member, Belgium, and Rwanda for the re-establishment of their diplomatic relations. Team Europe in Rwanda celebrates the return of Belgium into our group. Stronger together @prevotmaxime @onduhungirehe #HamweNatwe
🇧🇪🇷🇼 (EN/FR/NL) Pleased to announce today the resumption of diplomatic relations between Belgium and Rwanda. In a world marked by growing tensions, this is an important signal here in New York, the UN's host city, which embodies multilateralism and dialogue beyond our differences. This is the culmination of a process of frank discussions with my counterpart and the result of a shared, respectful effort. I am convinced that we can set a positive agenda, mutually beneficial to our citizens, and grounded in the richness of our interpersonal relations. We agreed on the importance of systematic dialogue, including on the points of disagreement that remain, such as the conflict in eastern DRC. Restoring diplomatic relations between states does not mean abandoning our position, but having structured channels for dialogue, and I will continue to defend the territorial integrity and sovereignty of the DRC. We want to put our expertise in the region to work in support of mediation efforts as best we can, and we will continue to urge strict respect for the commitments made by all parties within the Doha and Washington processes. ——— Ravi d’annoncer ce jour la reprise des relations diplomatiques entre la Belgique et le Rwanda. Dans un monde marqué par des tensions grandissantes, c’est un signal important ici à New-York, ville siège de l’ONU qui symbolise par excellence le multilatéralisme et le dialogue au-delà des différences. C’est l’aboutissement d’un processus de franches discussions mené avec mon homologue et le fruit d’un effort respectueux commun. Je suis convaincu que nous pouvons définir un agenda positif, mutuellement bénéfique pour nos ressortissants, et fondé sur la richesse de nos relations interpersonnelles. Nous avons convenu de l’importance de dialoguer systématiquement y compris sur nos points de divergences qui persistent, comme sur le conflit dans l’Est de la RDC. Rétablir des relations diplomatiques entre États ne signifie pas renier nos positions mais disposer de canaux structurés de dialogue, et je continuerai à défendre l’intégrité territoriale et la souveraineté de la RDC. Nous voulons utiliser notre expertise dans la région pour soutenir au mieux les efforts de méditation et nous continuerons d’exhorter au respect strict des engagements pris par toutes les parties dans le cadre des processus de Doha et de Washington. —— Verheugd om vandaag de hervatting van de diplomatieke betrekkingen tussen België en Rwanda aan te kondigen. In een wereld gekenmerkt door toenemende spanningen is dit een belangrijk signaal, hier in New York, de zetelstad van de VN die bij uitstek het multilateralisme en de dialoog voorbij verschillen symboliseert. Dit is het resultaat van een proces van openhartige gesprekken met mijn ambtgenoot en de vrucht van een gezamenlijke, respectvolle inspanning. Ik ben ervan overtuigd dat we een positieve agenda kunnen uitstippelen, wederzijds voordelig voor onze burgers, en gestoeld op de rijkdom van onze interpersoonlijke relaties. We zijn overeengekomen systematisch met elkaar in dialoog te blijven, ook over de blijvende meningsverschillen, zoals over het conflict in Oost-Congo. Het herstel van diplomatieke betrekkingen tussen staten betekent niet dat we onze standpunten opgeven, maar wel dat we over gestructureerde dialoogkanalen beschikken, en ik zal de territoriale integriteit en soevereiniteit van de DRC blijven verdedigen. We willen onze expertise in de regio naar best vermogen inzetten ter ondersteuning van de bemiddelingsinspanningen, en we zullen blijven aandringen op de strikte naleving van de door alle partijen aangegane verbintenissen in het kader van de Doha- en Washington-processen. @BelgiumMFA
