It Is Better For A Country To

Israel And Rwanda Both Play An Active Part In International Organizations, Including The U.n., But I Think It's True That Our Unique Experiences As Nations Have Shaped A Fierce Independence That We Will Not Relinquish.

There Are Things I Admire, For Example, About South Korea Or Singapore. I Admire Their History, Their Development And How Intensively They Have Invested In Their People And In Technology.

I Do Not Want To Be Cynical, But If Developing Nations Are Kept Backward By Being Told, Again And Again, You Belong To The Poor And You Are There, Where You Actually Belong, Then Nothing Will Change.

In Rwanda, We Have A Society That Has Experienced A Very Serious Rupture And You Can't Expect All Of A Sudden That Things Will Be Perfect. Even So: You Cannot Find Any More Areas Where Any Segment Of The Population Would Be Afraid To Go, Like We Used To Have Before. But There Is Always A Lot More To Do.

Reconciliation Has Taken Place Here In Rwanda And Was Successful Because Rwandans Reconciled Themselves Internally. If The Tribunal Had Taken Place In Rwanda, It Might Have Helped. People Could Have Watched Justice Being Done.
