GOMA, Congo (AP) - Government negotiators and rebel groups reached a deal to end fighting in the vast country's restive east, where some 800,000 people had to flee their homes over the last year, officials said Monday.
All parties agreed to the accord and scheduled a formal signing for Tuesday, Vital Kamerhe, the president of Congo's national assembly, announced.
At a meeting in this eastern city late Monday, a representative from each negotiating delegation publicly voiced acceptance of the accord, with no one speaking against.
