Tshisekedi Wins DRC Presidency

Newsday

Available for over a year

The Democratic Republic of Congo’s electoral commission said Felix Tshisekedi won almost 39% of the vote, well ahead of the man who had been leading the polls, Martin Fayulu. US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo arrives in Egypt as part of a tour of the Middle East. And in the UK, parliament has been increasing its control over the tumultuous Brexit process. MPs passed an amendment that will force the Prime Minister - in the event that she loses a vote on her Brexit deal - to present them with an alternative plan three days later.
