Central African Republic - April 2025

On 19 April, two of the armed groups that have opposed the central government since the election of Faustin-Archange Touadéra in 2021, signed an agreement to re-join the peace process that had been initiated in 2019. The two groups are Unité pour la paix en Centrafrique (UPC, Union for Peace in the Central African Republic) and Retour, Réclamation et Réhabilitation (3R, Return, Reclamation, Rehabilitation), both of which have predominantly Fulani supporters. The negotiations to re-enter the peace process were facilitated by Fulani traditional leaders (especially Issa Bi Amadou), with negotiations taking place in Chad. Other armed groups have rejected the agreement and continue their opposition to the central government.
