The United States and the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) have reaffirmed their partnership in the mining sector. On Wednesday, U.S. Ambassador Lucy Tamlyn emphasized her country’s commitment to being a sincere and reliable partner to the DRC.
The ambassador delivered this message during a meeting with Minister of Mines Louis-Watum Kabamba in Kinshasa, where she also congratulated him on his recent appointment.
Ambassador Tamlyn praised the Congolese government’s efforts to promote transparent and responsible management of the mining sector for the benefit of the Congolese people.
Their discussions centered on a shared vision of building a sustainable mining sector that aligns with international standards. Ambassador Tamlyn confirmed the United States’ determination to continue close cooperation with the DRC, including encouraging the entry and investment of American companies eager to explore opportunities in the country’s mining industry.
The meeting also underscored the two nations’ shared values of good governance, transparency, and mutually beneficial partnership — principles that remain at the core of their collaboration in the mining sector.
