Tanzanian President Jakaya Kikwete sparked the outrage of Rwandan President Paul Kagame and other top Rwandan officials when he said, at the African Union's 50th anniversary gathering, that for there to be peace to the Democratic Republic of the Congo, the Rwandan government must negotiate with the Democratic Forces for the Liberation of Rwanda, or FDLR, an eastern Congolese militia made up of its own former citizens and their children.  

 

Tanzanian President Jakaya Kikwete was the first African president to meet with President Barack Obama after he assumed office in 2009.

-“The root cause of the Rwandan tragedy of 1994 is the long and past historical ethnic dominance of one minority ethnic group to the other majority ethnic group. Ignoring this reality is giving a black cheque for the Rwandan people’s future and deepening resentment, hostility and hatred between the two groups.”

-« Ce dont j’ai le plus peur, c’est des gens qui croient que, du jour au lendemain, on peut prendre une société, lui tordre le cou et en faire une autre ».

-“The hate of men will pass, and dictators die, and the power they took from the people will return to the people. And so long as men die, liberty will never perish.”

-“I have loved justice and hated iniquity: therefore I die in exile.”

-“The price good men pay for indifference to public affairs is to be ruled by evil men.”
