"If you look at what has happened in Eastern Congo, and everything we have gone through over the past four or five years, and you look at what we have left behind, there is evidence. There are facts that speak for themselves. In Eastern Congo, in Goma and elsewhere, the whole world came together against Rwanda. The whole world lined up against Rwanda: the FDLR and all the groups associated with it that have been mentioned, the Wazalendo, the Burundian forces, the FARDC, the South Africans, and many others. I would rather not spend time naming them all; there were so many.
When you look at the scale of what they had assembled there and what they were up against, it is clear that what they were trying to do was wage war against Rwanda, destabilize our country, and reshape it the way they wanted. In fact, they said so themselves. Ordinarily, if someone were to say these things without evidence, you might think they were simply trying to frighten people, to intimidate them.
To convince themselves that what they wanted was within reach and that they were going to achieve it, they even brought in mercenaries. You know that many of them passed through here. We gave free passage to our enemies, allowing them to leave a war they waged against us, a war that was never theirs to begin with. That alone tells you something. And it is also something for which our forces, together with others who stood with them, deserve recognition.
As for Rwanda, we will always be in a struggle for our very existence. Regardless of those who wish us harm, surrounding us from many sides, one thing remains true: we should and will always be a step ahead of them.
It is our right. It is our will. And our history has taught us that we have within ourselves the capacity to defend and protect ourselves whenever necessary. And that is exactly what we will continue to do." President Kagame | Unity Club Meeting
@UnityClubRw stands as a powerful symbol of Rwanda’s journey of unity, reconciliation, and national cohesion. By promoting the spirit of Ndi Umunyarwanda, the Club continues to remind Rwandans that our strength lies in our shared identity, mutual respect, and commitment to one another. Its work goes beyond words, it nurtures dialogue, builds trust, and reinforces the values that hold our nation together.
In a country that has chosen healing, dignity, and collective progress, @UnityClubRw remains an important guardian of the unity that Rwanda cherishes so deeply.
To the young people of #Rwanda, being young is not enough. You cannot afford to waste any opportunity. Do not let the fear of failure or taking risks stand in the way of who you can be. Claim your rightful place in the world, no one will hand it to you
This morning in Gaborone, President Kagame toured Diamond Trading Company Botswana (DTC Botswana), a 50/50 joint venture between the Government of Botswana and De Beers. DTC Botswana is the world’s largest and most sophisticated rough diamond sorting and valuing operation, with the capacity to sort up to 45 million carats annually.
“What Africa wants is simple: To take care of ourselves, and work productively with others. With the fragmentation we are seeing around the world, more isolation is not the solution. It will breed rivalry and division.
Viewing development as a positive-sum game rather than a competition, can bring the predictability and coherence that our global system desperately needs. The question is not whether we can build a perfectly balanced world. It’s whether we can co-exist, even with our differences, and still prosper together.” President Kagame | @WorldPolicyConf #WPC2026
Today, at the Kigali Genocide Memorial, the Defence Deputy Spokesperson, Lt Col Simon Kabera, joined Ecobank employees at a commemoration event held in memory of the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi.
In his remarks, Lt Col Simon Kabera explained how the Genocide was planned and carried out by the leaders of the time. He also emphasized the crucial role played by the Rwanda Patriotic Army in bringing it to an end.
He further highlighted the responsibility of Rwandans today in combating Genocide ideology. Participants were encouraged to remain voices against hatred and division, to teach the true history, and to raise young people with values of unity and reconciliation.

During the Genocide against the Tutsi, Valentine was just a child, surviving in ways no child ever should hiding among the dead, carrying wounds far deeper than the eye can see.
Years later, she returned to Nyarubuye, to the very church that held her darkest memories. Instead of turning away, Valentine chose to pray.
In a place once filled with fear, she found strength. In the shadow of tragedy, she chose faith.
Her story is not just survival it is courage, resilience, and the power to rebuild after the unimaginable.
Remember. Unite. Renew.

“What sustains Rwanda today is the unity of Rwandans, and the conviction that like all people, we have the right to live in safety and dignity, and at peace with all our neighbours.
What we ask, is for partners to join with us to fight extremism, rather than punishing Rwanda for defending itself. We owe future generations of Rwandans more than survival. They deserve to inherit a secure, united, and bold country, and an integrated and confident Africa.” President Kagame | #Kwibuka32
