[Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa]

On behalf of the government and people of South Africa, I offer warm congratulations to His Excellency President @PaulKagame and the government and people of Rwanda on securing a 10-year agreement to host the Formula 1 African Grand Prix.

South Africa shares in the pride with which Rwanda is preparing to fly the chequered flag for our continent with the hosting of a globally prestigious event at the planned Bugesera circuit from the early 2030s.

This contract is a recognition of the capabilities of the Rwandan nation and of our continent more broadly.

As host of the first Grand Prix on African soil in 1993, and organiser of other major global events, South Africa will be happy to provide any support we may be invited to share.

The F1 African Grand Prix is another lustrous addition to Rwanda’s growing collection of top international events, including the UCI-classified Tour du Rwanda cycling race.

Congratulations, Rwanda.

You are in pole position to make all of Africa proud and take motorsport to new heights.

Goma, RDC. Je viens de passer quelques jours à Goma, en République démocratique du Congo, et dans les zones environnantes sous le contrôle du M23. #Kivu2025
1. Goma, une ville apaisée
Tombée le 27 janvier 2025, la ville de Goma présente aujourd'hui un visage calme et une apparente normalité. Les rues sont animées, les habitants vaquent à leurs occupations et, à l'exception des banques, tous les commerces sont ouverts. La présence policière et militaire est très discrète, et un ordre nouveau semble s'être installé, contrastant avec le chaos précédent.
Les automobilistes respectent désormais les feux rouges et ne sont plus victimes de rackets policiers. La réputation des forces du M23, perçues comme incorruptibles, marque une rupture nette avec la situation antérieure. Autre changement frappant : la propreté de la ville. Jadis envahie par les détritus, elle a été nettoyée lors du Salongo, un travail communautaire organisé par les nouvelles autorités. On aperçoit encore ici ou là  quelques tas de déchets regroupés en cours d'évacuation.
L'accès à la ville s'étant amélioré depuis les campagnes environnantes et le Rwanda, les prix de certains produits de base, comme les haricots et les pommes de terre, ont baissé. Auparavant, les transporteurs étaient entravés par des interdictions ou des taxes arbitraires le long des routes, ce qui freinait le commerce.

RWANDA SUSPENDS DEVELOPMENT COOPERATION WITH BELGIUM

There is no longer a sound basis for development cooperation with Belgium. Accordingly, Rwanda is suspending the remainder of the 2024-2029 bilateral aid program with Belgium.

"La Belgique a mené une campagne agressive, aux côtés de la RDC, visant à saboter l’accès du Rwanda au financement du développement, y compris auprès des institutions multilatérales.

La Belgique a pris une décision politique en choisissant un camp dans ce conflit, ce qui est son droit, mais politiser le développement est fondamentalement inacceptable".

Rwandans have once more chosen the leader that we trust, need and deserve. Five more years of peace, progress and more prosperity for our country. It’s good to be Rwandan. ✊🏾

[Presidency | Rwanda @UrugwiroVillage]

Today in London, President Kagame met with Prime Minister @RishiSunak at 10 Downing Street. They discussed the productive bilateral cooperation between the UK and Rwanda, including the impactful support provided in the aftermath of the Genocide against the Tutsi and over the last 30 years. The leaders also discussed the continued progress of the Migration and Economic Development Partnership.

[Presidency | Rwanda @UrugwiroVillage]

This morning at Urugwiro Village, President Kagame met with former President Bill Clinton of the United States of America, who led the Presidential Delegation designated by President @JoeBiden to attend the 30th Commemoration of the Genocide Against the Tutsi.

They had candid and fruitful discussions on the country's transformation over the last 30 years and the importance of strengthening mutually respectful bilateral relations. They also discussed regional security issues and agreed on the need for a political solution that addresses the root causes of the conflict in Eastern DRC, which affects the whole and wider region.

Personne, y compris l’Union africaine ne saurait se disculper de son inaction face a la chronique d’un Génocide annoncé. Ayons le courage de le reconnaître et surtout de l’assumer. C’est n’est pas trop cher payé vis-à-vis des victimes et de leurs descendants. #Kwibuka30

Historic milestone today as the first @BioNTech_Group BioNTainers arrived in Rwanda, exactly 3 years since the first case of Covid-19 was detected in our country. This system will allow end-to-end mRNA vaccine production in Africa for the first time.

Congratulations to all the organisers, the security forces who kept everyone safe, the staff across all venues and all Rwandans who contributed to the success of #CHOGM2022! Thank you immensely for doing the country proud!

‘Kwibuka’ means to ‘remember’.

We stand together with Rwanda to mark the 28th commemoration of the genocide against the Tutsi.

Remember. Unite. Renew.
