Paul Kagame: Transforming Rwanda | Talk to Al Jazeera
Вставка
- Опубліковано 18 лис 2021
- Paul Kagame took office just six years after the 1994 genocide, in which some 800,000 people were slaughtered in an ethnic conflict.
But although Rwanda has transformed into what many consider “Africa’s tech hub” and achieved rapid economic growth, it has struggled to leave its dark past behind.
And while many see Kagame as a visionary leader, others claim he is a threat to democracy.
After winning his third term in 2017 with nearly 99 percent of the vote, how much longer is he planning to hold on to power? The president of Rwanda, Paul Kagame, talks to Al Jazeera.
❤ Kagame . Brazilian here. I wish all good things for my brothers from Africa.
I’m not a Rwandese. I believed that 99% was a joke until I moved to Rwanda then I understood that it was real.
This man deserves even 💯 for what he did and still doing for Rwanda. God bless him and Rwandan people.
For 27 years, reports on the alarming human rights violations in Rwanda have been published one after another, without any significant measure undertaken by the international community to intervene against the injustice that prevails in Rwanda. Instead, Paul Kagame continues to enjoy political, economic, financial, and technical assistance from the international community. The restrictions of fundamental rights and freedoms exercised by the regime of Paul Kagame are characterized by arbitrary imprisonments, torture, enforced disappearances and assassinations of citizens.The RPF regime led by Paul Kagame has excluded part of the population on an ethnic basis. The Hutus and the Twa are excluded from real filling in the institutions of Rwanda (beyond political posts without real power).It should be noted that the exclusion of ethnic groups from power is a breeding ground for civil war and violent conflict.
I haven't been there but I have watched a lot of videos by travellers who have documented their experiences in Rwanda. The success of that country is undeniable and amazing how far they've come from the chaos and tragedy just not long ago. Kagame is not a perfect leader, but unfortunately we live in a tribalistic continent, so we need tough leaders like him.
@@mwanamboka2262 How can you desociate the progress made since 1994 with the human rights violation! it's a rethoric message deserve to destabilise Rwanda... Today people are free to do business, information technology are accessible for all....but you forget to say that some of people are abusing yet we are still a frigile country
@@mwanamboka2262 Can you give us an example of institutions where people from a given ethnic group are excluded? Can you please tell us the definition of ethnic group and let us know how that applies in the Rwandan society? Or you are just talking for the sake of talking!
@@mwanamboka2262 I don’t think that you are a Rwandan. You sound like an angry Congolese who has something against President Kagame and that is understandable.
Let’s all wish a peace and prosperity to DRC. As an african please be happy for Rwanda’s progress as we all do. Thank you
Western democracy is currently flourishing in Libya 🇱🇾Syria 🇸🇾 Afghanistan 🇦🇫 Iraq🇮🇶Yemen 🇾🇪 Ethiopia 🇪🇹. And that is their vision for Rwanda 🇷🇼.
Don’t forget the DRC, Somalia, Chad, Central African Republic etc…
To make Westerns happy every four years those countries have a new corrupted presidents then after 4 years they have no choice other than to elect worse politicians and more corrupted then their predecessors then the cycle will keep repeating. This is what great Singaporean president called “a revolving door”… no plan, no infrastructure or economic development and no human indexes advancement…. But this vicious cycle make western countries HAPPY….
And nothing wrong with Africans! Ha ha how nice.....always blame the West for all your s.....t
Exactly. Western democracy is not the answer to every problem. We live in a continent plagued with tribal mentality so we need tough, patriotic leaders like Kagame. He isn't perfect, but we can't deny how far Rwanda has come in such a short time. Even if he's made some mistakes along the way, he's intentions for his country and Africa are good. I'm not Rwandan but I have respect for him and the people of Rwanda for what they've achieved.
@@ecotricity4470 Its not us only. Even in Asia your evil grand parents destroyed it. China will show you soon. They are coming for you.
@@ecotricity4470 Rwanda is just following the Singapore and China’s system.. Is there a problem of that?

He is wests man. Tell me what does Rwanda produce? Don't write Congo 🤔
We produce phones Maraphone, we assemble Volkswagen here, we are dependent on ourselves with coffee and tea production. The best road network, Tourism mind you high end, sports facilities. If you are not ashamed tell me your country, I hope it is not Kenya!

This is what they want if u do as they want that is democracy for the Western countries how many years this woman is in power in Germany do see them talking against that no no no the almighty Allah bless Rwanda an your leader and all African
Good luck
@@aminuaidara8601 so true
hes not immortal...Rwandans must think of the future of their country beyond him.
There is no democracy in the west, we are ruled by oligarchs here. The west caring about democracy is a tired joke but the media still pretends like there's still some legitimacy to it because the media is owned by these same oligarchs.
Democracy will not give you food on your table, democracy will not make your streets safe and democracy will not end a war. All respect for President Kagame.
That's not completely true. Wars between 2 democracys are not happening in today's world anymore. About food you may be true but in Rwanda too a lot of people are very very poor. Still I also think that Kagame has done great things for Rwanda!
agree
Without democracy you have to hope. Hope that you have benevolent leader. More suffering is likely to occur without democracy than with democracy. You need checks and balances on power.
Freedom of expression and transparency are the lifeblood!
@@borussia0127 lol and do you think war is not happening because of democracy or inspite of it, check well the reason... you'll probably find that it's mostly economic
I just visited Kigali on October 7th, 2021 and had a marvelous time. The people are kind; friendly and welcoming, they were happy to showcase their city and country. I'm going to visit again & will take a friend with me, to share the love of an African country that wants & need tourist/visitors.

The Rwandan Government led by the Dictator Paul Kagame thinks itself prosperous with the money of, among others, the European taxpayers, while the population of Rwandan is highly food insecure and starving of hunger, Rwanda is in fact poverty-stricken. In his book - Kagame's Economic Mirage - Prof.dr. David Himbara, who served twice under Kagame, most notably as head of Kagame's Strategy and Policy Unit from 2006 to 2010, explains why the math of Kagame’s supposed accomplishments simply doesn't add up.Human rights advances have taken a back seat to Kagame's push for economic prosperity, while his boasts that a peasant economy is giving way to a dynamic, knowledge-based
market are overblown and misguided at best. The book is an insider's view of a corrupt political system that is holding citizens back.

Kagame is spot on! A visionary leader that many Africans would wish he ruled their countries as well.
Other African leaders have a lot to learn from Paul Kagame. The transformation of Rwanda the last 20 years is simply amazing.
All we need is development, infrastructure improvement, life improvement, peace and instability....the name of democracy has ruined many countries in Africa like my country kenya..where every 5 years we start where we stopped the fighting. ..
You right Democracy sometimes comes at an unnecessary cost
@Rock Landstone
There may not be better alternative, however, the problem we Africans have is the lack of strong institution, so like the Kenyan said after every 5 years they start the fight all over again, because there's no continuity in vision. I can tell you that success that Rwanda has had is largely because they have a long and sustained leadership under Kagame.
@Mohamed Rahoy, I am yet to fathom how the word "DEMOCRACY" has ruined many countries that you're alluding to. Would you mind elucidating further?
@Rock Landstone Dictator himself. If you have a she-like leader nothing you can do. If you have a Trump-like leader nothing you can do. So what would protect the people from a Dictator is the Dictator himself. That is why I always say, do not bring bad leaders closer to power because sooner they will ascend to power and when they do, a common man will have no option because that kind of person will have grabbed all the institutions to work for him. We should just learn what happened in America. Trump captured all the American institutions for himself. Given time, trump would have demolished all your so-called strong institutions and remained in power indefinitely.
@Rock Landstone where we come from that exactly how it works brother! same playbook. It's not like we love dictators rather it's just that we luck alternative means to dislodge them. We tried wars and it didn't work. That is why I say any bad aspiring leader should not be allowed to come anywhere close to power. In other words, trim them before they grow. Because if you allow them to flourish you are inviting trouble for the Nation in the near future. Republicans had the opportunity to stem the rise of Trump at the primaries but they didn't. Now, what they have is a Trump that keeps dividing Americans even as he is no longer in power. In Rwanda, no politician is allowed to divide the people. Because we know in Africa we cant handle that division like Americans. In Africa, we need strong men like Kagame to steer us to Glory, not some me too political politicians.
Keep on keeping on Sir Paul, love what you are doing
The man of People. African Hero. Rwanda is blessed to have u🇷🇼
He is an example of good governance not only for African Americans but for Asian countries like Pakistan. It is shame for the host to talk about democracy as his own country iand all the arabs ares run by dictators

Amazing leader. Africa needs 53 more leaders like him👍🏾 Did you say that the President of Singapore who was President for over 50 yrs, was "holding onto power?" No. The West said he transformed his nation with no criticism. President Kagame is a visionary leader who LOVES his people. He has transformed his country and is a model of what an African leader SHOULD be. And THAT is what America and the West fears, a healthy united Africa that doesn't allow the West to be parasitically feeding off of our resources to the detriment of AFRICANS 💯
Model for Africa 🤣! Do you even now what you are talking about ? You obviously have no idea of the role of this “visionary leader” of yours in destabilizing the Great Lakes Region of Africa. Ask yourself why does he have problems with all his neighbor countries (Uganda, Burundi, Tanzania and Democratic Republic of Congo) ? Are you aware of the role that he plays in looting the Democratic Republic of Congo from it’s gold deposits and it’s mineral riches in order to in-rich himself at the expenses of millions of innocent civilians hoe have been massacred in the DRC.

Like or hate him, the fact is that he is one of the few African leaders who made things happen. Ages away from the usual non sense that is usually vocally vomited by most of his peers. One of the most efficient, at that, since Thomas Sankara and few..very few..others! Now, no one is perfect. And he is NOT perfect.

You are biased in a way you try to use the corrupted Himbara as your source. Himbara was fired because he was corrupted, he can't be a reliable source of information; you can fool some people but not all.
RDC Congo issues started long before Kagame was born, deal with your issues like men and stop being crying babies.
2nd, Rwanda survived a 4 years Civil war and 1 of the world worse genocide in history which killed 1 millions Tutsi and some hutu opposition political leaders in less than 100 days. The 4 years war started because Dictator Habyarimana refused the right of Tutsi refugees to return home to Rwanda for 30 years until they decided to come back home by launching a successful gerilla war against extremist dictator regime of Habyarimana and his French allies soldiers.
Yes, Rwanda is enclaved, small, not very rich in natural ressources, but against all odds, Rwanda survived the war and successful managed to rebuild its economy to the point where Rwamda can now finance 62% of their own budget, with remaining 38% of budget money coming from aid and loans/grants.

@@mwanamboka2262 you're a congolese and I know you hate kagame. Stop blaming him for the destabilization of congo. DR Congo became a weak state after the assasination of patrice lumumba.
The queen of England has been queen since 1952 and there’s no problem with that. Angela markel has been German leader for so long and no issue with that. There’s no problem if it’s happening in Japan, China, Korea, India or in Arab world. Leadership can stay on forever. But it’s an issue if it’s happening in Africa! Give me a break
That may be good for Rwanda. They are free to pursue their own system.
It does not work everywhere; some Afrikan cou tries have established their system of democracy and it is non-negotiable.
The queen has no power
RWANDA:
1)the safest country in Africa
2) the cleanest country in Africa
3) 7th most effective goverment in the world/1st in Africa
4) 4th least corrupt country in Africa
5) 2nd easiest place to do business in Africa by the world bank
6) 6th most attractive country for investments in Africa
7) rwanda ranked among top10 fastest growing economies in Africa since 2000(annual average 8%)
8) The best place to livein for women in Africa ( gender equality is very advanced)
9) the only country in Africa whereby 90% of the citizens are covered with health insurance( the government pays for vulnerable families)
10)12years of basic education for free( primary& secondary).
These are some of many achievements of H.E KAGAME. The man behind the success of RWANDA. Those who don't like him must know that Rwandans love him and they have the reason. Proud of you Mr president
That’s because it’s an extremely small country with only 8 million people. When you only have 2 ethnic groups and a small population, it’s easy to maintain rule and peace.
Kagame has seen more suffering and deaths for 3 lifetimes than Museveni and still patient enough to know what's right and wrong. I like the fact he Keeps things Simple. Be humble, respect the Law, or Die.
💯
Why do you compare President Kagame to non living things like m7.
@@dallenwaamber3420 They are both non living ghouls sucking human blood all over Central Africa.
@@davidkomakech9769 really surprisingly we Rwandans we love him the way he sacks our blood if that's how they sacks blood we're team PK no matter what so I would advise you to find somewhere to hide mean while we're enjoying his good leadership
@@niniarutek7257 Of course in a police state where everyone spies on everyone and everything, it pays to "love" your leader otherwise you may end up like Kizito Mihigo. Am sure North Koreans LOVE their leader.
The great Paul Kagame, Long life with good health strength and prosperity to you King, as per usual, you represented yourselves and country very well, govern by pride and dignity above the validation of the outside negative influences, Stay strong up King
This man can even change the world 🙏🇷🇼💗
How?
😏
This is how Rome is built, strength of leadership, unity in purpose.
This president have more knowledge to lead a country, than trump and Biden combined
Agee 💯
No kidding
Absoulty yes
He also is culpable in the genocide of millions more Afrikans than Trump and Biden combined!
Second in sending Afrikans to the ancestors only to Leopold!
@@BonsuBigWhale He isn’t.
Al jazeera interviewing the Hero, Panafricanist and Greatest Leader in the world is a very commendable step in inspiring its viewers & the world to learn from the Greatest Leader. Al Jazeera also should be mindful of how it uses terminologies relating to historical facts, in order to avoid misleading the public: it is not the "1994 Genocide" but the "1994 Genocide against the Tutsi" as it was resolved by the UN General Assembly.
Eugine-the UN and other human rights organizations have recognized the 100 killed or exiled post genocide by the Kagame regime;do you wish to acknowledge?
Hur ?
USA and EU must stop interfering Africa, we African have our value and culture we can handle and solve our problems.
The success Rwanda has achieved under the leadership of Paul Kagame is remarkable.When a country transformed itself from what it was should be admired and should send a message to other African countries to participate in progressive institutions and education in all fields.
Africa should be one country and this guy should be president for life
This is how to respectfully engage a president in an interview, I commend the Al-Jazeera journalist for his very mature and respectful engagement unlike many of the western journalist who go in throwing wild accusations to provoke, make insinuations and disrespectfully put the person they are interviewing on the defensive....
Libya did before Rwanda and tell me how they end up??? You will be next
Hitler Paul Kagame is the number one responsible of WAR CRIMES in the Congo Democratic. He is building rwanda by killing millions of congolese and looting mineral resources from this country since two decades. He is a champion of lying the world.
One of the best images of the new Africa is Paul Kagame
inane...
Regular elections won't transform a country, but visionary leader did.
who lied to you?. pitiful
@@kadogo7712 thre are regular elections in somalia, Congo, Libya, Mali, Central Africa Republic and chad, however can observe thre security, economy and GDP and compare to Asian tigers who had visionary leaders not meaningless regular elections
I see the man behind our success story in the house right now!we love our President
Did anyone notice how his tone changed asked about Uganda...
Uganda and Rwanda are brothers we should workout our issues. Same people
Go tell Museveni that he should stop addressing Rwanda and South Sudan as if they were Uganda Province. Rwanda and South Sudan are sovereign states.
@@ahata7245 the history of uganda and Rwanda is interwined..what happeneds I Uganda affects Rwandese and what happens in Rwanda affects Uganda..and both are bigger than museveni and kagame and will out last them.20 years nor museveni or kagame will be here but the two countries will so stop focusing on small issues just to promote division.
Both countries want the border open and their population is overwhelming in support both in Rwanda and Uganda. Before commenting do some political analysis first.....don't just promote division.
Rwandese are our brother and sisters.
Mama Africa please Protect your own son,
May the spirit of Pombe magufuli, Thomas sankara,kwame Nkrumah,julius nyerere, patrice lumumba, mohamal gaddafi rest apon you brother paul kagame
they will be in him.because he was influencer of magufuli.i still remember how in his first times in office magufuli,tanzanians would be saying that they got their own kagame and his opposition would accuse him of following dictatorial system of kagame but later we saw what he did
Am Zambian 🇿🇲🇿🇲🇿🇲🇿🇲 but still love the achievement of president kagame and the Rwandan at large very piecefull country
Proud of my President 🇷🇼🇷🇼❤️❤️❤️👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
i pity u
A Great President Who Definitely Made A Great Image Of His Country Front Of The World.
Peace To The Brothers And Sisters in Rwanda
Paul Kagame is a hero....if only we had other African leaders following suit
😮😂😂

True meaning of right person the world longs for rings a bell right in the heart of Africa, particularly Rwanda. Long live P.K
Many dont like kagame because how Rwanda became most peaceful and beautiful country in Africa. There many Rwandan puppets who are working for westerners like France to return Rwanda where it was in 19th
💯, kagame is the 🐐 of Africa
As a Nigerian I've watched several Western Journalist interview this man called Paul Kagame and one thing that baffles me is that these journalists usually ask him questions that samples western values as the best point of view, which I think is a wrong way to ask a man who understands that the world cannot be viewed from one lens or perspective in order to get the right view of things. Also, he always try to correct them and let them know that he's not against their view but they should respect other peoples view and what works for them in their own dynamic space. Also this idea of superiority and inferiority of whose values are best to fit and fix this dynamic space called Earth or the world as we may know it, will surely leave a bad taste in everyone's mouth because one size doesn't fit all. Truly "Democracy is not defined by the West"....💯
Emmanuel: it's truly mind boggling. Just watch a recent interview by a Bbc journo during the Chogm2022.
Love from Ethiopia.

Love 💖 you more 💕
Your excellency sir Paul kagame can you invite the prime minister of Jamaica sir Anderw Holiness n school him for us please, I admire you leadership it speaks volumes.
Kinney G. Please leave Prime Minister Holness alone, because he is the best prime minister Jamaica have for nearly thirty years, twenty five years of the non progressive PNP and you didn't ask President Kagame to come and rescue Jamaica from P.J. and Portia, but you referring to schooling Andrew, and the fact is if President Kagame was prime minister of Jamaica you all would be calling him dictator, just like you are calling Andrew because of the covid restriction that he placed in Jamaica and the ones in Rwanda was more rigid, go and fix the party that you support that is falling apart, they can't even govern themselves, but they want to govern Jamaica.
Nyacyubahiro Perezida Paul Kagame! I lived in your country for four years. What a country! Though I am South African but I regard you as the President of Africa. Good Governance is the hallmark of Rwanda. I admire you my President.
🇷🇼 He's the man came and see it your self.
0:37 "threat to democracy" , i really hate when people start saying this. Democracy is not a solution for every country, for a country like Rwanda what they need right now is a good and visionary leader that know how to lead his people. in the end it doesn't matter what ideology Rwanda hold ( this also true for other country ) what matters is, how good the leader leading the country.
One of the greatest leaders of the world. I wish we in Somalia had Paul Kagame as our president.
Long live Paul Kagame. The greatest son of Africa in the 21st century
I love my president! I wish he is younger than he is today .
Love from Ethiopia 🇪🇹✌️
where there is no vision the people perish, 20/20 Vision wow.
Hes full of wisdom people should see what kagame did to his country. He's truly an example leader may God bless him for all he did. He's one of the best African leaders in history. He loves his country and his people and everyone can see thru his action in Rwanda 🇷🇼
Imagine, a Saudi asking Kagame about staying in power too long. 😳
The irony.
It's his job, he's a journalist and he's not directly involved in governance of Saud kingdom
@@winmugaru6347 No, he is *DIRECTLY INVOLVED* in taking money from someone who’s been there too long. If it’s so immoral then he should decline the cash.
Raise The Flag Sir🇷🇼
What a beautiful country ❤️
I pray there will be no more conflict in this country. All they need is a great and wise leader like him 👍.
Our Living hero 🇷🇼
Farmaajo is transforming Somalia but the media in the west hate any African leader who is working for the benefit of their country 🇸🇴🇸🇴
Well you certainly can not compare this President to your leaders in Somalia...🤣. Not even close. He is doing great work and your leaders are blaming everyone apart from themselves for their greed and corruption.
@@unique1_4u It took Kagame many years before we noticed his accomplishments. Farmaajo just started running Somalia a few ago, and he is doing great. So, give him more time before you judge him.
@@unique1_4u for what

Your very right kagame is a papet and agent of AGAY in Africa Rwandans are poor like nothing propaganda just his a killer
He changed his country from hatrade to love and humanity, while indian pm modi leading india from brightness to darkness
A man of experience that solved big issues in his country. His calmness and the diplomatic way he responded gives me hope that Africa is onboard and shall lead the globe 🌎! Great men never give up what ever it will took like P.Kagami.
This guy is genius....who are the west to tell this great man how and when he should stay......pls go to the middle East and ask the same ...you will see their response
Kagame is a Great Leader in the world . Thank you kagame for your panAfricanism.
If one day i can shake President Paul Kagame hand,i would tell him keep on going ,you 're doing a great job.
Would rather live in a free country. There is no comparison to be had.
Hi is a good president God bless you mr president i want to come and live in Rwanda 🇸🇳🇸🇳🇸🇳🇸🇳🇸🇳🇸🇳 Rwanda the Singapore of Africa
