Congolese President Felix Tshisekedi says the participation of any armed group, such as M23 rebels, in a national dialogue remains impossible as long as the group continues to take up arms against the government.
DR Congo, in central Africa, has been repeatedly hit by conflict in the mineral-rich east, in particular the resurgence of the M23 rebel group since 2021.
Fighters have seized swathes of territory and the December peace deal has failed to end the fighting.
Consultations would take up to three months, the president says, adding that the resulting document will be used as a basis for "national talks" and a "national pact" based on "peace, national unity and the higher interest of the republic".
