The East African Community is banking on a push by its facilitator of the peace process in the Democratic Republic of Congo to return the warring parties to dialogue, after months of grandstanding.
This week, the facilitator, former Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta, arrived in Goma, eastern DRC, as part of his efforts to bring the rebel M23 and the government to peace.
