The UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, Volker Türk, reiterated during discussions in Kinshasa with the President of the Republic, Félix Tshisekedi, his call to the international community on the need for it to intervene in the face of the Congolese tragedy.

He notably stated: "We had a fruitful exchange, especially regarding our collaboration in the field of human rights. You know that I was in Goma and Ituri where I saw the suffering of the populations which shows that the international community must mobilize to find a solution and support the Congolese people".

For Volker Türk, this exchange with the Congolese head of state was marked by promises of a firm collaboration now.
