It is in view, said the Honorable Batumona, of restoring confidence as well as redefining reciprocity, a pledge of interstate relations. As a consequence, the President of the Republic considerably changed the perception of the partners vis-à-vis the DRC and also enhanced the image of the Congolese Head of State and the country.
