VOICED : Ruanda conmemora 20 anos del genocidio

The 20th anniversary of the Rwandan genocide was marked by a diplomatic dispute with France, as Rwanda accused France of complicity in the genocide. France denied these allegations and withdrew from the official events. President Paul Kagame lit a torch at the Kigali memorial, marking the start of 100 days of national mourning for the 800,000 victims, mostly Tutsi. International leaders, including UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon, attended the ceremony. The genocide began on April 6, 1994, following the assassination of President Juvenal Hatyarimana.
