Yesterday, I received a delegation of Ukrainian MPs, led by Hon. Oleksandr Merezhko, Chairperson of the Committee on Foreign Policy and Interparliamentary Relations.
The delegation included Hon. Zhan Beleniuk, who was born from a Rwandan father and is a former Olympic champion of Greco-Roman wrestling. He is the Leader of the Parliamentary Friendship Group.
We discussed bilateral relations, the situation in our respective regions and parliamentary diplomacy.

Being a refugee in Rwanda
Meet Galina: a college student and Burundian refugee living in Rwanda, whose access to higher education created new opportunities for a future she always hoped for.

Une immense perte pour le Rwanda, la Justice et l'humanité toute entière. L'héritage de Mme Dafroza Gauthier restera à jamais dans nos mémoires et dans nos actions, étant une fierté pour la génération actuelle, et une inspiration pour les générations futures.
R.I.P. Dafroza Gauthier💔
1/10/1990 – 1/10/2026 | On October 1st, we honour the courage and sacrifice of the Inkotanyi who took up the struggle for the rights, dignity and unity of Rwandans.
Thirty-six years later, their legacy remains relevant. In the Great Lakes region, communities continue to face hate speech, persecution and the denial of their fundamental rights and dignity.
As Rwandans, let's continue to uphold the values for which the Inkotanyi fought for: unity, dignity and patriotism.

1/10/1990 – 1/10/2026 | Iya mbere Ukwakira, tuzirikana ubutwari n’ubwitange bw’Inkotanyi zatangije urugamba rwo guharanira uburenganzira, agaciro n’ubumwe bw’Abanyarwanda.
Nyuma y’imyaka 36, umurage wabo uracyafite akamaro. Mu karere k'ibiyaga bigari, hari abaturage bakibasirwa n’imvugo z’urwango, bagahohoterwa ndetse bakamburwa agaciro n'uburenganzira bwabo bw'ibanze.
Nk'abanyarwanda, dukomeze gusigasira indangagaciro Inkotanyi zaharaniye: ubumwe, agaciro no gukunda ighugu.

Receiving Mr. Pekka Olavi Haavisto, Personal Envoy of the United Nations Secretary General for Sudan, to discuss about mediation efforts to end the conflict in Sudan.
As Rwanda becomes an increasingly digitally enabled society, Rwandans need the knowledge and best practices to stay safe online.
This year's "Tekana Online: Be Cyber Smart" campaign sets out three calls to action: for the public to stay alert to digital scams, for organisations to strengthen their cyber resilience, and for young people to consider careers in cybersecurity.

Here you have a journalist who religiously hates Congolese. Whereas Ebola is fast spreading in #DRCongo and killing thousands, @HarianaVeras lies the killer disease is under control.
"The continued presence of the FDLR in eastern DRC, its genocidal ideology, and the continued collaboration and support it receives from the DRC government constitute a direct and existential security threat to Rwanda".

There was an interesting conversation between President Tshisekedi's messenger to the White House @HarianaVeras and US President @realDonaldTrump. When the former alleged Rwanda was "still killing people in Congo," President Trump redirected her with a question: "How is Ebola going?"
To understand why Gen. Ekenge remains @FARDC_officiel's spokesperson in 2026, it's because: Had @fatshi13 been a judge at the #ICTR, justice would have been swift—and nonexistent. He would have judged "Théoneste Bagosora was not a planner of extermination—but a man careless with words because he was inadequately trained in restraint." And Jean Kambanda would be judged as a man who betrayed republican values but did not preside over a genocidal government. For Tshisekedi? Kambanda merely failed to align his rhetoric with "national cohesion.”...

Today, Hon. Minister @Dominiquehab and Hon. Minister of State @mskayisire chaired a consultative meeting with Local Government leaders to discuss and deliberate preparations and ensure the smooth conduct of the forthcoming Local Government elections.
The Minister emphasized that daily life and the delivery of quality services must continue without interruption, requiring leaders to put in even greater effort.
Starting from 30 October 2026, Districts will temporarily be headed by District Executive Secretaries until new District Executive Committees are elected.
MoS @XandrineUmutoni commended Kagarara for adding a new title to the many through which people have come to know him: author.
More importantly, she highlighted the significance of Kagarara choosing to tell his own story, in his own voice, rather than allowing others to define his experience for him.
“Ntabwo bihagije kuvuga ko duha agaciro abantu bafite ubumuga. Bigomba kugaragarira mu bikorwa byacu.
Umwana ufite ubumuga ntagomba guhishwa mu rugo kubera gutinya icyo abantu bazavuga. Agomba kujya ku ishuri, gukina n’abandi, guteza imbere impano ze, kugira inzozi — kandi akamenya ko na we afite umwanya muri sosiyete yacu.” - MoS @XandrineUmutoni
