Peacekeeping Missions On 14 July, the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees urgently appealed for trucks, water tankers, aircraft and funds to meet the crisis. It also urged the Government of Rwanda and RPF to conclude quickly a comprehensive peace agreement, and requested the Secretary-General to report on the contribution the United Nations could make to assist OAU in implementing this agreement and to begin contingency planning in the event that the Council decided that such a contribution was needed. National reconciliation would require both a political understanding between the former leadership of the country and the present Government and the establishment of conditions in the camps, and in Rwanda itself, conducive to the return of the refugees. www.gmu.edu /departments/t-po/resource-bk/mission/unamir.html   (15334 words)

Speaker Profile - Lt.-Gen. (Ret.) Roméo Dallaire A best-selling author, his recently released book, Shake Hands With the Devil, is a stirring account of his experience as the Force Commander of the United Nations Mission to Rwanda and exposes the failures by humanity to stop the worst genocide in the 20th century. As Commander of the UN Assistance Mission in Rwanda and Uganda this is the situation that faced Roméo Dallaire. General Roméo Dallaire's story shares the most extreme results of being given responsibility without authority: limited by immovable parameters; being overseen by an organization who don't fully support the mission; and put into situations which force you to question your ethics every step of the way. www.nsb.com /speakerbio.asp?i_speakerid=232   (701 words)

Role of the international community in the Rwandan Genocide - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia After the attack of 6 April 1994, the Radio des milles collines spread the rumour that Belgian soldiers from United Nations Mission for Assistance in Rwanda were the source. As the outgrowth of a press campaign, especially the articles written by the journalist Patrick de Saint-Exupéry which appeared in 1994 and in 1998 in the French newspaper Le Figaro, the French parliament decided to examine the actions of France in Rwanda using a parliamentary information mission for Rwanda [1]. On 22 October 2004 the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda officially demanded that the "Republic of France" allow former ambassador Jean Michel Marlaud and one of his military representatives, officer Jean Jacques Maurin to respond to the demand of the defence of the presumed mastermind of the genocide: Colonel Bagosora pending judgement. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Role_of_the_international_community_in_the_Rwandan_Genocide   (758 words)
