http://www.fdu-rwanda.com/ Rwanda : 19 ans après les massacres de Kibeho restent toujours impunis avril 22, 2014 Ce 22 avril 2014 est un triste anniversaire. Souvenons-nous, en effet, c'est à cette date que plus de 8'000 réfugiés dans le camp de Kibeho furent tués à l'arme lourde et aux lance-roquettes des soldats du Front Patriotique Rwandais. Des dizaines de milliers de rescapés du camp qui ont tenté ensuite de s'échapper ont été froidement abattus sur leur chemin de retour, les uns, jetés dans des fosses communes, d'autres, jonchés tout le long des routes, d'autres enfin, tout simplement disparus, sans la moindre trace. Le camp de réfugiés de Kibeho abritait près de 200000 personnes. Que l'on se rappelle, c'est peu avant le 17 avril 1995 que, sous le prétexte fallacieux de démantèlement de prétendus arsenaux d'armes, six bataillons de l'armée du FPR (2000 hommes) et de la...

UK and USA must stop foreign aid provided to Rwanda. For the last 25 years, this foreign aid has been used by the Rwandan' regime to stabilise RD Congo where thousands of children, men and women have died and other are still living in misery in refugee camps. This foreign has been used to strengthen Rwanda which claims to be a military power in the region.
ReplyDeletePM David Cameron is supporting human rights abuses and war through his continuous campaign for foreign aid for countries such as Rwanda which is used this aid to fight against political freedom and to support armed groups in Congo. Without this foreign aid Rwanda would not behave arrogantly at the Security Council.
Rwanda warns DRC of deadly retaliation
Ambassador to UN says Rwanda will strike DR Congo if cross-border firing continues, after peace talks break down.
DR Congo troops have fired three shells over the border into neighbouring Rwanda, injuring at least one person, during resurgent clashes with M23 rebel fighters, Rwandan officials have claimed.
Rwanda's UN ambassador Eugene Richard Gasana told the AFP news agency on Friday that his country would not hesitate to retaliate if the firing continued.
"If they are not ready to stop this, we will immediately act and it will hurt," he said, adding: "We will do it with laser precision, we know where it is coming from."

Kagame who is leading the war against Congo through M23 believes that as a man who claims to be an American ally, he has nothing to answer about the war crimes and crimes against humanity that he committed in Rwanda and DR Congo.
• He can launch war against any neighbouring country at any time. He remains unaccountable of the war crimes and human rights abuses that he committed in Rwanda and DR Congo. He has killed thousands of people in Rwanda, DR Congo and neighbouring countries.
• He receives foreign aid from the UK and USA to maintain the army that is fighting in Congo where more than 6 million have killed and now about 2 million of people are living in refugee camps in Rwanda and DR Congo.
• He receives foreign aid from the UK and USA for maintaining the Police, the Judiciary, the Intelligence Institutions to strengthen discrimination and apartheid against the Hutu communities and to fight against human and political rights in Rwanda. Many opposition leaders have been killed and other are now jailed.
• He is fighting against the ICC hoping that this fight will help him to escape justice. He believes that he has the licence to kill and nobody else can make him accountable of these killings.
• He has found Mr. Uhuru Kenyatta, the President of Kenya as an ally in fighting the ICC. The President of Kenya should know that he is dealing with a man (Mr Kagame) who is a war criminal and that their relations are only tarnishing the image of the President.
• We urge the President of Kenya to distance himself from Kagame as soon as possible.
• At the time that UK and USA have been signing cheques to fund Kagame' regime, the UN is spending billions of dollars in DR Congo as the result of Kagame' action in destabilising the region. Without Kagame, that money spent by the UN would have been allocated to fight against poverty in many parts of the developing world.
