The Sadc Organ on Politics, Defence and Security Affairs meeting is being held as a precursor to tomorrow’s regional full summit comprising Heads of State and Government.
Zambia’s Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation Minister, Mulambo Haimbe, who is the outgoing chairperson of the Organ, officially opened the meeting.
In his opening remarks, Minister Haimbe said the Sadc region is enjoying relative peace, but expressed concern about the security situation in the Eastern Democratic Republic of Congo.
The Troika member States, whose other members are Tanzania and Namibia, have gone into closed-door meetings.
