Rwanda report blames France for its role in 1994 genocide

Rwanda report blames France for its role in 1994 genocide Although the two countries restored their diplomatic relations in 2009, France has no ambassador in Rwanda since the last one left the post in 2015. ADVERTISEMENT France “bears significant responsibility” for enabling “foreseeable” genocide against ethnic Tutsis in Rwanda that happened in 1994, a report commissioned by the Rwandan government has concluded. The 628-page report commissioned in 2017 was authored by the U.S. law firm Levy Firestone Muse LLP with the involvement of three Rwandan local law firms in its preparation. It was released during its formal presentation to the Rwandan cabinet. French officials “armed, advised, trained, equipped, and protected” the then Rwandan government and were heedless of its commitment to the dehumanisation and, ultimately, the destruction and death of Tutsi in Rwanda, said the report.
