The delegation included U.S. Representatives Austin Scott of Georgia and Salud Carbajal of California, both members of the House Armed Services Committee, along with Jimmy Panetta of California, who serves on the House Committee on Ways and Means.
According to a communique from the Office of the President, talks between the Head of State and the visiting lawmakers centred on strengthening existing partnerships between Rwanda and the United States in areas such as regional security, education, and health.
The visit follows recent U.S.-led diplomatic efforts to ease tensions between Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of Congo, which resulted in the signing of a peace agreement in Washington on June 27, 2025. The accord committed both countries to ending hostilities and working together to promote economic development.
