The End

The Rwanda genocide lasted  from the 7th of April to the 16th of July in 1994. The genocide ended once the Rwandese Patriotic Front (RPF), whose leader was  Paul Kagame, took control of the government of Rwanda. The seized the capital of Rwanda, Kigal, and many of the remaining Hutus fled Rwanda. Most of these Hutus have returned to their homeland, but some do remain in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). A coalational government has been formed in Rwanda and a presidential election was held in 2003, this being the first post-war presidential elections in Rwanda. 95.1% of the vote in the national election went to Paul Kagame, and as election goes, he became president. Even though Kagame is a Tutsi he as ensured unity in Rwanda by making sure the government was not only made up of Tutsis. Ministers derived from all three social and ethnic groups of Rwanda. The government didn't just look past the genocide. The government of Rwanda has been working to return more than two million refugees home. Many people are being arrested because of the crimes they committed during the genocide and prosecutions of these criminals are still being held today, under the gacaca, or the traditional village court system. Prisons are over populated and some perpetrators of the genocide are being released due to this. This is threatening the Tutsi survivor community. Even though the current Rwandan government prohibits any form of discrimination by ethnicity, race or religion, it is still a standing issue and many don't feel comfortable about this.
