KoBold Makes Offer for Congo Lithium as Country Courts US, page-2893

Something about the first point here (1) feels very deliberate. That was put as the first point for a reason, the highest priority and the geopolitical trigger point to get this deal done?

'KoBold and AVZ are advance the peace process by having reached consensus as to a commercial framework enabling the rapid development of the Manono deposit.'

The phrase 'advancing the peace process' implies to me KoBold playing a diplomatic role, potentially being involved in the peace discussions with Rwanda. As much as this is politicised, let's be real, a lot of this conflict is related to resource extraction. Therefor, is it reasonable to assume our deal is wrapped up in the peace negotiation? Just thinking out loud.
