00:00Let's start with the All Africa website, which tells us that the tripartite summit
00:18will be held on December 15 in Rwanda and will bring together the presidents of the
00:23Democratic Republic of Congo, Felix Etusekedi, and Rwanda, Paul Kagame, under the aegis
00:29of the Angolan mediator Djao Lorenzo, notes the newspaper.
00:33This meeting aims to restart the peace process in eastern RDC, where clashes
00:39between the Congolese army and the M23 rebels persist despite a ceasefire signed in July.
00:47The expectations vary, the RDC wishes to withdraw the Rwandan troops, while Rwanda
00:53calls for direct negotiations with the M23, adds our colleagues.
00:59In Ivory Coast, Laurent Gbagbo promised to compensate all victims of electoral violence
01:05if he is re-elected in 2025, according to what we can read from the Nouvelle Tribune Info.
01:09During a meeting with women from the African People's Party in Ivory Coast, his wife
01:15Nadi Momba emphasized his commitment to organize sit-ins to allow victims to express themselves.
01:22Laurent Gbagbo expressed his compassion, in particular towards mutilated, unheard women,
01:29and affirmed that his compensation project will not make a political or religious distinction.
01:36This initiative aims to promote reconciliation in a country marked by political crises,
01:42concludes the Nouvelle Tribune Info.
01:45Let's now talk about the drop in oil prices in Togo.
01:49The government announced that it is already making a short-lived form of this decision,
01:54aims to improve the purchasing power of citizens and to reduce transport costs across the country.
02:01The new rates include a drop of 80 francs for oil, now at 695 francs per liter,
02:10and 20 francs CFA for the Super 100 plomb, fixed at 680 francs CFA per liter.
02:18Authorities will monitor the strict application of these new prices,
02:22and will detail them with daily checks planned, according to the African press agency.
02:29The International Committee of the Red Cross delivered this week 74 tons of food
02:35to the detainees in the prison of Kambahia Beni, according to the online newspaper Radio Copie.
02:41This food aid, which includes essential products such as flour and vegetables,
02:47aims to fight against acute malnutrition in this prison.
02:52The distribution will continue every week for two months following an alarming evaluation,
02:58revealing a malnutrition rate exceeding 30% among the detainees.
03:03In addition to the food, the International Committee of the Red Cross also provided
03:08200 cubic meters of heating wood for the preparation of meals, notes the Congolese information site.
03:16And finally, AFRICOM informs me that Charles Onana, the Franco-Cameroonian political scientist,
03:21was sentenced by French justice to a fine of 8,400 euros for protesting the Tutsi genocide in Rwanda.
03:30These decisions are made following controversial passages in his book,
03:34where he minimizes the events of 1994 by quoting the thesis of the genocide of Dogme and Excroquerie.
03:42Its publisher, Damien Siriux, was also sentenced with a fine of 5,000 euros.
03:49The two men announced their intention to appeal to these decisions,
03:53marked by a strong opposition from the human rights defense associations,
