This comes following increased fighting that has displaced nearly 7 million people.
Blinken spoke separately by phone with Congolese President Felix Tshisekedi and Rwandan President Paul Kagame about the “volatile situation and worsening humanitarian crisis along the border,” the State Department said.
Its statement added that Blinken advocated for a diplomatic solution to the tensions.
