Ese umubano w'u Rwanda na Turikiya umaze iminsi uvugwa uzageza he Abanyarwanda ?
Ni byiza ko u Rwanda rwakomeza kwagura amarembo ariko twagombye no kwibaza inyungu bifitiye u Rwanda.
Umubano w'u Rwanda na Turkiya ukomeje gutakwa n'U Rwanda ushobora gutuma Abanya Turkiya batangira uturimo tworohereje tw'ubucuruzi mu Rwanda ariko nta kintu kigaragara u Rwanda ruzakura kuri Turikiya ari mu Bucuruzi ndetse no gufasha u Rwanda mu iterambere. Turkiya ntabwo ari igihugu kiri mu bihugu bifasha ibihugu bikenye.
Iyo umunya Turkiya atangiye umurimo w'ubucuruzi aho aba ntabwo aha akazi umuturage w'igihugu uwo mu nya Turikiya akoreramo kuko abanya Turikiya nabo bagashaka. Iyo milimo kandi iba ari nto cyane nko gufungura restaurant, kogosha, kugurisha ibiryo, gutwara taxi, cyangwa se gucunga ka boutique, bityo ugasanga nk'imisoro yaturukaho kuri iyo mirimo ari ntayo cyangwa se ari mike cyane.
Aba Turkiya baba mu bindi bihugu by'Uburayi usanga nabo bitwa impunzi cyangwa abimukira, bashaka akazi, imibereho no gufashwa. Ni nayo mpamvu Umuryango w'Uburayi udashaka kubemerera visa ihoraho kuko babonye iyo visa abenshi bakwimukira mu bihugu bikize cyane cyane Ubufaransa, Ubudage n'Ubwongereza. Ndetse ahubwo ikibazo cya Turikiya cy'uko abaturage baho bashobora kuzimukira mu Bwongereza ari benshi igihe Turikiya yemerewe kuba umuryango w'Umuryango w'ibihugu by'i Burayi kiri mu mpaka zerekeye amatora azaba mu minsi iri imbere mu Bwongereza azemeza cyangwa ntiyemeze ko UK yaguma muri uwo muryango. Abashaka ko UK yaba mu muryango w'uburayi baravuga bati UK niva muri uwo muryango, izashobora gukumira abo banya Turikiya.
Aba nya Turikiya ubwabo nashoboye kuvugana nabo barivugira ko bajya kuba mu bindi bihugu byo mu Burayi kubera guhunga ubukene. Ariko njye ndabona atari uko u Rwanda rubibona kuko rufite amizero menshi rutegereje kuri Turikiya. Ibi byose bituma umuntu yakwibaza ikintu kigaragara umubano w'u Rwanda na Turkiya wamarira umunyarwanda.

[haguruka.com] TR: {UAH} Habré verdict is a landmark decision
Dear Mulindwa you have a very right point below!
And effectively "no Arab or white ever collected slaves from Africa, they sat on African ports of entry, and Africans themselves collected themselves and sold themselves to the whites and Arabs".
That is what AU is doing today with its virtually redundant court, despite having a budget of more than $50 million per annum. That famous court also operates like the International Court of Justice (ICJ), in that a state party must first agree to be sued in the court for any action to proceed".
Sir Habre is in problem because westerner sponsors want him to pay for probably something that went wrong in their agreements and business, not because he mistreated and killed black Africans. As simple as that sir and we guess that through these sentences:
" Hissène Habré is a former U.S. ally who's been described as "Africa's Pinochet. He came to power with the help of the Reagan administration in 1982. The U.S. provided Habré with millions of dollars in annual military aid and trained his secret police, known as the DDS".
Sir Deby was first used to do the job of pushing Habre out of the power in a coup and now a Special Ad-Hoc Court, set up by a Special Resolution of the African Union, just one-off and not a permanent court is finishing him.
African rulers must know that they can abuse their people as long and as much they want, but once one does not comply with the West will, he will quickly end bobby-trapped (e.g. Gaddafi, Gbagbo, Mobutu, Habyarimana, etc.).

Objet : RE: {UAH} Habré verdict is a landmark decision
Again, before you bark against your very own Africans, at what point will you stand up to demand a killer like Tony Blair to stand trial? The man is sitting right in your country. Why are those that were killed by Habre of more value to those killed by Tony Blair? And I fail to get this phenomenon that eats Africans this way, to sing any song as long as it is against themselves. But again history has educated us very well, that no Arab or white ever collected slaves from Africa, they sat on African ports of entry, and Africans themselves collected themselves and sold themselves to the whites and Arabs. And here we so are this man started his day by praising how important was Bill Clinton, even at what he did in Kosovo. When he arrived at a time to write about his own continent he pulled out Habre. Do you want to raise the Obama's name a man that has used drones than any past presidents to murder with no question asked, Africans will fall on their feet praising him, even though he sent more than 350 drones in just one term. The only bad man Africans know is Muamma Gadhafi. A man that paid most of the education many Africans got in many African countries.
We are really black people.

In Historic Ruling, Ex-Dictator of Chad Hissène Habré Convicted of Crimes Against Humanity
May 31, NEXT: From U.S. Ally to Convicted War Criminal: Inside Chad's Hissène
Former U.S.-backed dictator of Chad, Hissène Habré, has been convicted of crimes against humanity and sentenced to life in prison. Habré is accused of killing as many as 40,000 people during his eight years in power in the 1980s. At the landmark trial in Senegal, Habré was convicted of rape, sexual slavery and ordering killings during his reign of terror. Habré was tried in a special African Union-backed court established after a two-decade-long campaign led by his victims.
This is the first time the leader of one African country has been prosecuted in another African country's domestic court system for human rights abuses. We go to Dakar, Senegal, to speak with Reed Brody, counsel and spokesperson for Human Rights Watch. He has worked with victims of Hissène Habré's regime since 1999 and played a critical role in bringing Habré to trial.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
AMY GOODMAN: In an historic ruling in Dakar, Senegal, the former dictator of Chad, Hissène Habré, has been convicted of crimes against humanity and sentenced to life in prison. The former U.S.-backed leader is accused of killing as many as 40,000 people during his eight years of reign in power in the '80s. At the landmark trial in Senegal, Habré was also convicted of rape, sexual slavery and ordering killings during his reign of terror. This is Judge Gustave Kam announcing the court's decision on Monday.
JUDGE GBERDAO GUSTAVE KAM: [translated] Hissène Habré, the court condemns you to life in prison. You have a period of 15 days from the pronouncement of this judgment to appeal the decision in accordance with the criminal procedure code.
AMY GOODMAN: Habré was tried in a special African Union-backed court established after a two-decade-long campaign led by his victims. This is the first time the leader of one African country has been prosecuted in another African country's domestic court system for human rights abuses. After the verdict was read, survivors of Habré's regime embraced each other in the courtroom. This is Souleymane Guengueng, founder of the Chadian Association of Victims.
SOULEYMANE GUENGUENG: [translated] Honestly, I'm very satisfied. I do not have the words, but let the name of God alone be glorified. It hurts me that many of my colleagues died along the way. They could not be here to see the result, which is why I was moved and brought to tears. But it is still a truly happy moment. I have to say it, but I cannot say it enough. Hissène Habré was sentenced to life imprisonment. He will finish off his life in prison, and that's all we wanted. I hope this serves as a lesson to all the other dictators out there.
AMY GOODMAN: Hissène Habré is a former U.S. ally who's been described as "Africa's Pinochet." He came to power with the help of the Reagan administration in 1982. The U.S. provided Habré with millions of dollars in annual military aid and trained his secret police, known as the DDS. After Habré's sentencing, Human Rights Watch's attorney Reed Brody tweeted, quote, "Habré's conviction for these horrific crimes after 25 years is a huge victory for his Chadian victims, without whose tenacity this trial never would have happened. This verdict sends a powerful message that the days when tyrants could brutalize their people, pillage their treasury and escape abroad to a life of luxury are coming to an end. Today will be carved into history as the day that a band of unrelenting survivors brought their dictator to justice," unquote.
Well, for more, we go directly to Dakar, Senegal, where we're joined via Democracy Now! video stream by Reed Brody, counsel and spokesperson for Human Rights Watch. He's worked with victims of Hissène Habré's regime since 1999 and played a critical role in bringing Habré to trial.
Reed Brody, welcome to Democracy Now! Share your reaction to the verdict yesterday.
REED BRODY: Thank you, Amy. Well, it's just an immense satisfaction. I mean, as the judge was reading the verdict and as we heard his—you know, the narrative that the victims have been weaving for 25 years, basically detailed by the judge, who found the allegations credible, and we could see—we could see the way the judge was heading. It was just this immense moment of satisfaction. And right after the verdict, you know, we were embracing, and there were a number of widows who had come from Chad specially for the occasion, who started ululating. And, you know, I have—you know, very few people thought that this day would ever come. One of them was Souleymane Guengueng, who you highlighted before. And just, I mean, last night with Souleymane until 1:00 in our hotel room, we were rewatching a TV reading of the verdict, and just hard to believe that, you know, this day has come, that these victims have finally achieved justice. It's—
AMY GOODMAN: Well, Reed, actually, talk about Souleymane Guengueng, who we just saw responding to the verdict. Tell us his story. I want to go back to 2008, when we spoke to this Chadian activist, who spearheaded the case. He described why it was so important to him for Habré to be tried. We're going to go to that clip in just a minute.
But tell us about what happened to Souleymane.
REED BRODY: So, Souleymane was a deeply religious civil servant. You know, he was thrown in jail on false charges. As people were dying around him in his prison cell, you know, he took an oath before God that if he ever got out, he would fight for justice. And when the prison—when Idriss Déby overthrew Hissène Habré and the prison doors swung open, Souleymane got together others and founded the first victims' association, and has been fighting since then. Many of Habré's accomplices were still and are still in Chad—mayors, police chiefs, governors. And they started making death threats against Souleymane and forced him to go into exile in the United States. And Souleyman's been fighting for the last 10 years. I mean, when you aired that in 2008, Amy, we had already been working together for nine years. That was seven years—no, eight years ago.
AMY GOODMAN: I've got that clip of Souleymane Guengueng right now from 2008.
SOULEYMANE GUENGUENG: [translated] For everyone who has lived this kind of situation, they need to know that as long as Hissène Habré is not brought to justice, psychologically, morally, we are not healed, and that remains in our heads. The example is, when we were in Dakar eight years ago with Reed to file the case, and when Hissène Habré was indicted for the first time, it's as if—those of us who were there, as if something came into our heads, and we were liberated from these things that were in our head. We, the victims, only really us, the victims, who understand how we need justice in order to be restored to our full strength and height; somebody who hasn't survived this kind of torture can't really understand that.
AMY GOODMAN: That's Chadian activist Souleymane Guengueng back in 2008. Reed Brody, take it from there.
REED BRODY: You know, this—Habré was arrested for the first time 16 years ago here in Senegal. And the previous government of Senegal just for 12 years gave us the runaround. I mean, Habré left—before Habré left Chad, he emptied out his country's treasury, and he brought all that money here to Senegal and created a web of political influence and support. He also, I think, silently had the support of a lot of other African heads of state, who made it clear they didn't want to see this precedent created. And so, the victims fought in Senegal.
When the case was thrown out in Senegal, they went to Belgium. Belgium investigated the case for four years, requested Habré's extradition.
Senegal said no. We actually made an ally of the African Union, which said to Senegal, "Well, if you don't want to extradite him to Belgium, you should prosecute him in Senegal." President Wade, then, of Senegal agreed, but he didn't do it.
And actually, Belgium took this case to the International Court of Justice, the World Court in The Hague. And in 2012, the World Court ruled by a unanimous decision that Senegal had a legal obligation to prosecute or to extradite Hissène Habré. And that same—in those same months, Macky Sall became the president of Senegal, and Macky Sall was one of the many leaders of Senegal who the victims had been visiting over the years, creating the political support here in Senegal, creating the political conditions. And since 2012, the government of Senegal has been behind this court, and as you said, it was a court established by Senegal and the African Union. The trial started last year, and yesterday we got the verdict.
AMY GOODMAN: We're going to talk about the U.S. role, going back to President Ronald Reagan in 1982, with the rise of the Chadian dictator, Hissène Habré, but we're going to break first. We're talking to Reed Brody, counsel and spokesperson for Human Rights Watch, who has been working with victims of Hissène Habré's regime since 1999 and played a critical role in bringing Habré to trial. We're speaking to him in Dakar, Senegal, where Habré was tried and convicted. Stay with us.

And effectively "no Arab or white ever collected slaves from Africa, they sat on African ports of entry, and Africans themselves collected themselves and sold themselves to the whites and Arabs".
That is what AU is doing today with its virtually redundant court, despite having a budget of more than $50 million per annum. That famous court also operates like the International Court of Justice (ICJ), in that a state party must first agree to be sued in the court for any action to proceed".
Sir Habre is in problem because westerner sponsors want him to pay for probably something that went wrong in their agreements and business, not because he mistreated and killed black Africans. As simple as that sir and we guess that through these sentences:
" Hissène Habré is a former U.S. ally who's been described as "Africa's Pinochet. He came to power with the help of the Reagan administration in 1982. The U.S. provided Habré with millions of dollars in annual military aid and trained his secret police, known as the DDS".
Sir Deby was first used to do the job of pushing Habre out of the power in a coup and now a Special Ad-Hoc Court, set up by a Special Resolution of the African Union, just one-off and not a permanent court is finishing him.
African rulers must know that they can abuse their people as long and as much they want, but once one does not comply with the West will, he will quickly end bobby-trapped (e.g. Gaddafi, Gbagbo, Mobutu, Habyarimana, etc.).

Objet : RE: {UAH} Habré verdict is a landmark decision
Again, before you bark against your very own Africans, at what point will you stand up to demand a killer like Tony Blair to stand trial? The man is sitting right in your country. Why are those that were killed by Habre of more value to those killed by Tony Blair? And I fail to get this phenomenon that eats Africans this way, to sing any song as long as it is against themselves. But again history has educated us very well, that no Arab or white ever collected slaves from Africa, they sat on African ports of entry, and Africans themselves collected themselves and sold themselves to the whites and Arabs. And here we so are this man started his day by praising how important was Bill Clinton, even at what he did in Kosovo. When he arrived at a time to write about his own continent he pulled out Habre. Do you want to raise the Obama's name a man that has used drones than any past presidents to murder with no question asked, Africans will fall on their feet praising him, even though he sent more than 350 drones in just one term. The only bad man Africans know is Muamma Gadhafi. A man that paid most of the education many Africans got in many African countries.
We are really black people.

In Historic Ruling, Ex-Dictator of Chad Hissène Habré Convicted of Crimes Against Humanity
May 31, NEXT: From U.S. Ally to Convicted War Criminal: Inside Chad's Hissène
Former U.S.-backed dictator of Chad, Hissène Habré, has been convicted of crimes against humanity and sentenced to life in prison. Habré is accused of killing as many as 40,000 people during his eight years in power in the 1980s. At the landmark trial in Senegal, Habré was convicted of rape, sexual slavery and ordering killings during his reign of terror. Habré was tried in a special African Union-backed court established after a two-decade-long campaign led by his victims.
This is the first time the leader of one African country has been prosecuted in another African country's domestic court system for human rights abuses. We go to Dakar, Senegal, to speak with Reed Brody, counsel and spokesperson for Human Rights Watch. He has worked with victims of Hissène Habré's regime since 1999 and played a critical role in bringing Habré to trial.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
AMY GOODMAN: In an historic ruling in Dakar, Senegal, the former dictator of Chad, Hissène Habré, has been convicted of crimes against humanity and sentenced to life in prison. The former U.S.-backed leader is accused of killing as many as 40,000 people during his eight years of reign in power in the '80s. At the landmark trial in Senegal, Habré was also convicted of rape, sexual slavery and ordering killings during his reign of terror. This is Judge Gustave Kam announcing the court's decision on Monday.
JUDGE GBERDAO GUSTAVE KAM: [translated] Hissène Habré, the court condemns you to life in prison. You have a period of 15 days from the pronouncement of this judgment to appeal the decision in accordance with the criminal procedure code.
AMY GOODMAN: Habré was tried in a special African Union-backed court established after a two-decade-long campaign led by his victims. This is the first time the leader of one African country has been prosecuted in another African country's domestic court system for human rights abuses. After the verdict was read, survivors of Habré's regime embraced each other in the courtroom. This is Souleymane Guengueng, founder of the Chadian Association of Victims.
SOULEYMANE GUENGUENG: [translated] Honestly, I'm very satisfied. I do not have the words, but let the name of God alone be glorified. It hurts me that many of my colleagues died along the way. They could not be here to see the result, which is why I was moved and brought to tears. But it is still a truly happy moment. I have to say it, but I cannot say it enough. Hissène Habré was sentenced to life imprisonment. He will finish off his life in prison, and that's all we wanted. I hope this serves as a lesson to all the other dictators out there.
AMY GOODMAN: Hissène Habré is a former U.S. ally who's been described as "Africa's Pinochet." He came to power with the help of the Reagan administration in 1982. The U.S. provided Habré with millions of dollars in annual military aid and trained his secret police, known as the DDS. After Habré's sentencing, Human Rights Watch's attorney Reed Brody tweeted, quote, "Habré's conviction for these horrific crimes after 25 years is a huge victory for his Chadian victims, without whose tenacity this trial never would have happened. This verdict sends a powerful message that the days when tyrants could brutalize their people, pillage their treasury and escape abroad to a life of luxury are coming to an end. Today will be carved into history as the day that a band of unrelenting survivors brought their dictator to justice," unquote.
Well, for more, we go directly to Dakar, Senegal, where we're joined via Democracy Now! video stream by Reed Brody, counsel and spokesperson for Human Rights Watch. He's worked with victims of Hissène Habré's regime since 1999 and played a critical role in bringing Habré to trial.
Reed Brody, welcome to Democracy Now! Share your reaction to the verdict yesterday.
REED BRODY: Thank you, Amy. Well, it's just an immense satisfaction. I mean, as the judge was reading the verdict and as we heard his—you know, the narrative that the victims have been weaving for 25 years, basically detailed by the judge, who found the allegations credible, and we could see—we could see the way the judge was heading. It was just this immense moment of satisfaction. And right after the verdict, you know, we were embracing, and there were a number of widows who had come from Chad specially for the occasion, who started ululating. And, you know, I have—you know, very few people thought that this day would ever come. One of them was Souleymane Guengueng, who you highlighted before. And just, I mean, last night with Souleymane until 1:00 in our hotel room, we were rewatching a TV reading of the verdict, and just hard to believe that, you know, this day has come, that these victims have finally achieved justice. It's—
AMY GOODMAN: Well, Reed, actually, talk about Souleymane Guengueng, who we just saw responding to the verdict. Tell us his story. I want to go back to 2008, when we spoke to this Chadian activist, who spearheaded the case. He described why it was so important to him for Habré to be tried. We're going to go to that clip in just a minute.
But tell us about what happened to Souleymane.
REED BRODY: So, Souleymane was a deeply religious civil servant. You know, he was thrown in jail on false charges. As people were dying around him in his prison cell, you know, he took an oath before God that if he ever got out, he would fight for justice. And when the prison—when Idriss Déby overthrew Hissène Habré and the prison doors swung open, Souleymane got together others and founded the first victims' association, and has been fighting since then. Many of Habré's accomplices were still and are still in Chad—mayors, police chiefs, governors. And they started making death threats against Souleymane and forced him to go into exile in the United States. And Souleyman's been fighting for the last 10 years. I mean, when you aired that in 2008, Amy, we had already been working together for nine years. That was seven years—no, eight years ago.
AMY GOODMAN: I've got that clip of Souleymane Guengueng right now from 2008.
SOULEYMANE GUENGUENG: [translated] For everyone who has lived this kind of situation, they need to know that as long as Hissène Habré is not brought to justice, psychologically, morally, we are not healed, and that remains in our heads. The example is, when we were in Dakar eight years ago with Reed to file the case, and when Hissène Habré was indicted for the first time, it's as if—those of us who were there, as if something came into our heads, and we were liberated from these things that were in our head. We, the victims, only really us, the victims, who understand how we need justice in order to be restored to our full strength and height; somebody who hasn't survived this kind of torture can't really understand that.
AMY GOODMAN: That's Chadian activist Souleymane Guengueng back in 2008. Reed Brody, take it from there.
REED BRODY: You know, this—Habré was arrested for the first time 16 years ago here in Senegal. And the previous government of Senegal just for 12 years gave us the runaround. I mean, Habré left—before Habré left Chad, he emptied out his country's treasury, and he brought all that money here to Senegal and created a web of political influence and support. He also, I think, silently had the support of a lot of other African heads of state, who made it clear they didn't want to see this precedent created. And so, the victims fought in Senegal.
When the case was thrown out in Senegal, they went to Belgium. Belgium investigated the case for four years, requested Habré's extradition.
Senegal said no. We actually made an ally of the African Union, which said to Senegal, "Well, if you don't want to extradite him to Belgium, you should prosecute him in Senegal." President Wade, then, of Senegal agreed, but he didn't do it.
And actually, Belgium took this case to the International Court of Justice, the World Court in The Hague. And in 2012, the World Court ruled by a unanimous decision that Senegal had a legal obligation to prosecute or to extradite Hissène Habré. And that same—in those same months, Macky Sall became the president of Senegal, and Macky Sall was one of the many leaders of Senegal who the victims had been visiting over the years, creating the political support here in Senegal, creating the political conditions. And since 2012, the government of Senegal has been behind this court, and as you said, it was a court established by Senegal and the African Union. The trial started last year, and yesterday we got the verdict.
AMY GOODMAN: We're going to talk about the U.S. role, going back to President Ronald Reagan in 1982, with the rise of the Chadian dictator, Hissène Habré, but we're going to break first. We're talking to Reed Brody, counsel and spokesperson for Human Rights Watch, who has been working with victims of Hissène Habré's regime since 1999 and played a critical role in bringing Habré to trial. We're speaking to him in Dakar, Senegal, where Habré was tried and convicted. Stay with us.
