drc: Congo peace deal signed in Sun City

Congolese representatives have hailed the historic signing of a peace agreement and said it paved the way for the reconstruction of the country. But delegates also noted that tough times lie ahead as they seek to implement the peace deal. All the sides in the Democratic Republic of the Congo signed a peace deal that will pave the way for elections in two years' time. Forty-four groups - including armed factions, exiled political parties and civil society groups - signed the Final Act at Sun City. The signing ceremony signalled the end of the South African-sponsored Inter-Congolese Dialogue (ICD) which began 14 months ago in the same venue.
