Rwanda begins 100-day mourning period for over 800,000 people slaughtered in a genocide 25 years ago
A picture taken on March 22, 2019 shows the names of the victims of the Rwanda's 1994 genocide's at the Ntarama Genocide Memorial, in Kigali.
They are only some of those killed by the genocidal Hutu forces, members of the old army and militia forces called the "Interahamwe", that began their bloody campaign of death on April 7, 1994, the day after the assassination of President Juvenal Habyarimana, a Hutu.The killings lasted until Kagame, then 36, led the mainly Tutsi Rwandan Patriotic Front into Kigali on July 4, ending the slaughter and taking control of the devastated country.
For many survivors, forgiveness remains difficult when the bodies of their loved ones have not been found and many killers are still free. Kagame has kept an authoritarian hold as he steers the small, landlocked East African nation through economic recovery. Growth in 2018 was a heady 7.2 percent, according to the African Development Bank .Former colonial ruler Belgium is sending Prime Minister Charles Michel.
