I apologize, i tought the post was published on one of the french lemmy’s intance jlai.lu. That’s strange because i’m not subcribed to this community…Well, i just replied without checking first.

I wondered who was the president during Rwanda’s genocide in 1994. And it was Mitterand, a socialist. (Which surprise me a lot, usually right president are the worst). During my childhood there weren’t any history lesson on Rwanda yet.

According to the newpapers Le Point, Mitterand knews along few people and continued taking bad decision altough some people warned him about the Rwanda current regime and risk.

Du coup, je me demandais qui etait le président en 1994 : Mitterand.
