DRC Makes Informal Transfer of 3 Americans Convicted of Terrorism in Coup Attempt

On April 8, 2025, the Democratic Republic of the Congo (PRC) transferred three Americans to the United States after DRC President Felix Tshisekedi commuted their death sentences to life imprisonment. The first week of April, President Tshisekedi held talks with the visiting U.S. Senior Adviser for Africa, Massad Boulos, and Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for African Affairs, Corina Sanders, in Kinshasa, the capital of the DRC.[1]
