Joseph Kabila announced he would not seek reelection in August 2018. Kabila had been president of the Democratic Republic of Congo since 2001, and his second term was set to expire in 2016. However, the country's constitution was changed in 2015 to allow Kabila to run for a third term. This sparked widespread protests and criticism from the international community.
