WorldCongo Ebola outbreak disrupts US-backed minerals talks, sources say
A worsening Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo is disrupting travel and pushing back meetings connected to a critical minerals partnership backed by the United States. The initiative seeks to loosen China’s hold on Congo’s large copper and cobalt resources. Three people familiar with the matter told Reuters that the outbreak is affecting the talks. The health crisis is therefore delaying progress on the minerals partnership.
