Ce mémorial en hommage aux victimes du génocide perpétré contre les Tutsi au Rwanda est un lieu vivant. Il cultive la mémoire et projette vers l'avenir la relation entre le Rwanda et la France.

À nous de transmettre avec rigueur, dignité, vérité et justice.

“Confronting historical responsibilities requires real courage, because it generates fierce opposition by those with a case to answer. You need a strong sense of humanity to see it through. President Macron, I want to commend you on both counts: courage and humanity.

You acknowledged that France could have stopped the genocide, but did not. In response, I described your words as something more valuable than an apology: namely, the truth. This door was first opened by President Nicolas Sarkozy, and I wish to commend him today.

The Genocide against the Tutsi was foreseeable, and in fact foreseen, and France was in a unique position to observe and to act. It took too long for France to come to terms with its role, causing additional pain. And on some points, we still have not found consensus. I fully understand the feelings of those survivors and advocates, who remain dissatisfied with the official record. But I believe that our common work has initiated a journey towards truth, which is irreversible.

And France was not alone in falling short, far from it. Many other countries did so as well, but none has gone as far as France in setting the record straight and accepting its part in the tragedy.” President Kagame | Inauguration of Monument in Paris honouring the victims of the 1994 Genocide Against the Tutsi.

[Rwanda Forestry Authority @RwandaForestry]

Standing in remembrance at this memorial site is a solemn call of our collective duty to cherish the memory of the victims, recognize survivors’ resilience, and uphold peace, unity, and dignity for future generations.

“For Africa, energy is not simply a development issue. It is the foundation of industrial growth, and competitiveness. At the centre of this endeavour, is the question of investment. Too often, investors hesitate because they perceive many risks in Africa. We must work to strengthen regulation, ensure consistency and accountability, in order to build confidence and attract long-term capital.” President Kagame | Opening of the 2nd Nuclear Energy Innovation Summit for Africa #NEISA2026

“We can’t just be people who are waiting to be ripped off, by somebody who is shrewd enough and has the power, we must be able to say, “No”. President Kagame | Africa CEO Forum 2026

[Presidency | Rwanda @UrugwiroVillage]

“I think private sector is doing a good job, in fact, it is ahead of the public sector. They are actually, to some level, hustlers.

They are able to go through some of the barriers that are created by the public sector, but if those barriers were not there, the private sector would be far ahead of where they are, and along with that, the continent would be ahead of where we are.

Those of us in the public sector need to fine tune our responsibilities towards allowing the private sector to be the engine that they are, and should be, and all of us would benefit.” President Kagame | Opening Ceremony of the Africa CEO Forum 2026 #ACF2026

[Presidency | Rwanda @UrugwiroVillage]

“Many promises have been made to Africa, which have never materialized into anything tangible. Is this unfair? Yes. But ultimately, as Africans, we must take responsibility before anyone else. No world leader, no matter how big the country, is going to save our continent from itself. Conversations like these should remind us that through collaboration, we can overcome all the obstacles ahead of us.” President Kagame addressing a plenary with African and French CEOs on Green Industrialisation and Energy Transition.

[Presidency | Rwanda @UrugwiroVillage]

“At the end of the day, young people in Kigali, Gaborone, and elsewhere on the continent want the same thing: a fair chance to succeed, and to move forward in life.

It is our duty as leaders to create the conditions that make that possible.

This is precisely what we are working towards, and why visits like this matter.” President Kagame | State Banquet hosted by President Duma Boko.
