Angola and Congo to End Counter Deportations

LUANDA, Angola

Angola and the Democratic Republic of Congo have agreed to end counter deportation of their citizens in an effort to end illegal immigrations

This declaration comes when Angola sent their delegation to Kinshasa a period after 20,000 of their citizens were deported.

The Congolese government is blamed for evicting even legal immigrants. Humanitarian aids in Angola are however assisting in relocating the deportees to their home districts.

Congo and Angola have been faced by civil wars and high impoverishment. The Angola government once raged war on Congo for supporting rebels who held diamond mines and exchanged the diamond for weapons. [ER].
