Don’t terrorise me, Rwanda’s Paul Kagame tells Western countries

Rwanda’s President Paul Kagame

Rwanda’s President Paul Kagame led his people on Saturday in marking the 21st anniversary of the Liberation Day at a public meeting in a rural village where he criticised unnamed “powerful countries” that had dared question his human rights record.

In a hard-hitting speech delivered in Kinyarwanda in Rubaya, Gicumbi District in Northern Rwanda, Kagame said the Western countries “had no right” to tell him and the people of Rwanda what to do in the country’s march towards development.
