“Had Rwanda not stood up and taken responsibility and brought ourselves this far, we would be nothing. There would still be people coming to feed us.
When others complement what you are already trying to do, that is a good thing. But if you have done nothing yourself, if you have achieved nothing on your own, then you become nothing.
That is why we should always look back and remember. It helps guide us, including in the way we engage with others, whether in our region or beyond.
Most of you here are probably between the ages of 20 and 45.
Those who have gone before you are people who can look back and say : we did what we could. We gave everything we had, and this is the contribution we made. I am talking about those who fought for this country, and whose sacrifice made it possible for Rwanda to become what it is today.
Now, it is your time. I am speaking to you, the young people. Don’t wait until you are 70 and then start asking yourself: what did I do? I wish I had known. Take it seriously, understand it, and when you leave here today, act on it.” President Kagame, Chairman of the RPF | RPF Bureau Politique.

The Embassy of the Republic of Rwanda in the Republic of Korea was delighted to welcome members of the Rwandan Community in South Korea for a special ceremony marking the handover between the outgoing and incoming leadership of the Rwanda Community Association (RCA).
The occasion was an opportunity to celebrate the dedication, commitment, and selfless service of the outgoing RCA committee, whose contributions were recognized through the presentation of Certificates of Appreciation. It was equally a pleasure to warmly welcome the incoming committee as they embark on their new journey of service and leadership.
The Embassy extends its best wishes to the new leadership. We look forward to working together to further strengthen unity, solidarity, cooperation, and the vibrant spirit of the Rwandan community.

“To the young people, once again, this country expects a lot from you. And when I say the country, I mean you. You are, in fact, waiting for yourselves. You are the future you are looking toward. But it comes back to the process I was talking about, the mindset, the spirit, and everything else I mentioned, education and health. You must have knowledge, and you must have good health. Because if you are not healthy, what use is knowledge? What good is knowing anything if you do not have the health to make use of it? You must have both. And it is entirely possible to have both, if you make the choice to pursue both. It cannot be one without the other.
It is like raising a child, or planting a tree. You plant the seed, and as it grows, you continue giving it what it needs in order to thrive. It is the same with people. You need knowledge, and you should do everything possible to acquire it. But not simply to possess it. You must be able to use that knowledge to achieve the goals you have set for yourselves.” President Kagame, Chairman of the RPF | RPF Bureau Politique.
“Making people just shut up is going to be more difficult than people think. Telling us shut up, we will support those who want to come and kill you, like they killed you last time, and we will handle it the way we want. The only way to make me shut up is when I am dead. That's it.
Belittling everything and making it look like some people's lives are worth more than others. That is not my politics. It is not RPF's politics.
We are a small country. Very insignificant in many ways. You can harm to us but wishing us away is not a small thing.
When they said they would make the M23 disappear, they meant even Rwanda, we will make you disappear. Well, I can't invite it. I can't wish to have such a thing. But when it comes, when I have not been able to avoid it, I think they will find [us ready].” President Kagame, Chairman of the RPF | RPF Bureau Politique.
“The RPF’s politics is about confronting problems and finding solutions. That is the only politics. Politics based on lies, on making things up, on deception, on looking for ways to cheat, what some of you sometimes call “gushushanya-painting a picture,” only creates more problems. It does not provide solutions. It simply adds new problems to the ones you already had.” President Kagame, Chairman of the RPF | RPF Bureau Politique.
It was a great honor to represent the Republic of Rwanda at the 78th Anniversary of the Constitution of the Republic of Korea, held today at the National Assembly in Seoul.
This year’s theme, “Advancing Popular Sovereignty through the Constitution,” reflects the enduring importance of constitutional governance, democratic values, and the rule of law in shaping peaceful and prosperous societies.
The ceremony featured commemorative remarks by Hon. Chung Dae-chul, Chairman of the Parliamentarians’ Society of the Republic of Korea, congratulatory remarks by H.E. Cho Jeong-sik, Speaker of the National Assembly, the presentation of national honors, and a reaffirmation of constitutional principles. It was a meaningful reminder of the Republic of Korea’s remarkable democratic journey and national resilience.
Congratulations to the Government and people of the Republic of Korea on this important national occasion. 🇷🇼🤝🇰🇷

May his soul rest in eternal peace🙏🏾!

“Artificial intelligence has the power to transform lives and strengthen economies. Africa is well-positioned to contribute to the digital economy. By 2050, our continent will have the largest, fastest-growing workforce in the world. There are many success stories about what our young people are doing on the continent with artificial intelligence. We have to invest in them. It will be a win-win for everyone. The bottom line, is that for A.I. to serve humanity as a whole, we must get it right in Africa and everywhere else.” President Kagame | #AIforGood Global Summit 2026
