FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda
Mr Kagame, once a rebel leader himself whose troops ended his country’s 1994
genocide in the face of inaction from the West, has consistently denied
involvement in the current fighting in Congo. A Rwandan government spokesman
last night again repeated this denial, calling the UN report “nonsense”.
“Kagame has denied the same in 1996, in 1998, in 2008, and each time it
has been shown to be an outright lie,” Ms Van Woudenberg said.
“It’s at times like now that British leaders’ personal connections need
to be brought to bear to stop any and all support from Kagame to war crimes
suspects and the [rebels].
“If there’s ever a time for some strong words with our closest ally in
Africa, this is it. It’s not the time for softly, softly approach, we need
to be clear where the UK stands.”
Ban Ki-moon, the United Nations secretary-general, has personally called both
Mr Kagame and Joseph Kabila, Congo’s president, to urge both to work harder
to restart a peace process in Congo’s east.
President Barack Obama has approved a freezing of some military aid to Rwanda,
but no British aid has yet been reviewed, it is understood.
More than a quarter of Rwanda’s £320 million annual foreign aid comes from
Britain, the country’s largest bilateral sponsor, which plans more than £330
million in funding by 2015.
A Downing Street spokesman said that the Prime Minister had met with Mr Kagame
during the Rwandan president’s visit to London on Wednesday, and had raised
the issue of eastern Congo.
“The Prime Minister made clear to President Kagame the UK’s serious
concerns that Rwanda was providing official support to the M23 rebels in
Eastern Congo,” she said. “The Prime Minister urged the President
to take steps to calm the situation down and build trust in the region.”
