Following a month of relative calm, the ultimatum presented to President Tshisekedi, demanding the convocation of a national dialogue, officially expired on August 15. The Head of State subsequently announced on Sunday his intention to address the nation, providing details on the framework of this anticipated dialogue. Concurrently, the C64 opposition coalition has urged citizens to take to the streets for demonstrations scheduled for September 15. The critical question now remains: can political tensions be de-escalated before this planned mobilization?
