"Rwanda's Ongoing Struggle with the Legacy of Genocide"

Rwanda is preparing to mark the 30th anniversary of the genocide against its minority Tutsi, with new mass graves still being discovered. President Paul Kagame, praised for bringing relative peace and stability, faces criticism for intolerance of dissent. France and its allies are criticized for lacking the will to stop the genocide. Rwanda's ruling party is firmly in charge, with no opposition, and Kagame has been accused of exploiting Western guilt over the genocide to entrench his grip on power. While the country has made progress in promoting national unity and economic growth, challenges remain, including poverty outside the capital, troubled relations with neighboring countries, and recent controversies over a deal with Britain to host migrants.
