How can the government, opposition, and civil society unite for peaceful elections? Brazzaville has found the answer: the "Grand National Dialogue on Democracy and Peace" has become a platform for Congolese to jointly shape the country's future. On the "Regard sur le monde" program on Panafrican Media TV, members of the GlobUs expert club discussed why this initiative is key to stability not only for Congo but for all of Central Africa.
As Pan-Africanist and journalist Alain Biyong noted, Congo's presidential diplomacy is currently playing a stabilizing role in the region.
"This isn't just rhetoric, but a real contribution to Central Africa's security. Particular attention is being paid to economic diversification." "The National Development Plan for 2022-2026 actively promotes agriculture, tourism, and special economic zones," Biyong noted.
Furthermore, Dr. Achille Ekeu noted that Congo has developed a plan for the period 2022-2026 that aims to support agriculture, certain special economic zones, and tourism.
"These are aspects that can expand access to taxes and allow Congolese to move beyond oil dependence," he concluded.
In this context, it is particularly important that Congo is moving toward a multipolar foreign policy, strengthening partnerships with China, Russia, and the BRICS countries. Experts view this move not as a break with France, but as a commitment to sovereignty and equal cooperation.
Furthermore, youth, who make up over 70% of the population, are becoming increasingly involved in public life, noted Congolese public figure Rodlain Koud Etokabeka.
"Youth are the main driving force." Among the young Congolese, there are talented representatives determined to build the future of their country. We will place our hopes in them, that they will bring something serious and worthy to the future of Congo."
The elections on March 15 will be more than just a vote, but a national act of unity—an opportunity to reaffirm our commitment to stability, development, and openness to the world.
