Having failed to carry out elections by the end of 2016, as required by the constitution, the government engaged in two separate rounds of negotiations, the first under the auspices of the African Union and the second brokered by the Catholic Church, leading to the New Year&rsquo;s Eve agreement. Although this latter agreement has been welcomed by regional and national actors, its implementation has been stalled due to disagreements over the control of the transitional government. On April 7, 2017 these tensions were further exacerbated by the nomination of a new prime minister, Bruno Tshibala, without the support of the main opposition coalition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:30px;padding-top:0px;padding-bottom:0px\" class=\"is-core-paragraph-block has-space-small-mb\">In order to assess public opinion at this critical juncture, the <a href=\"congo-research-group-wp.x5view.co\">Congo Research Group<\/a> (CRG) at the New York University (NYU) and the Bureau d&rsquo;&Eacute;tudes, de Recherches, et Consulting International (BERCI) conducted a nationally representative poll in February and April 2017.
