President Kagame co-chairing the broadband commission

President Paul Kagame called on members of the Broadband Commission to double efforts in mobilizing world leaders to ensure that Broadband gains its rightful place on the MDG’s policy agenda.

The president made the call while co-chairing the second meeting of the ITU Broadband Commission in New York on Monday. The meeting brings together key players in the telecommunication industry in a bid to extend the benefits of high speed internet to all peoples of world.

The Head-of-State explained that Rwanda has embraced ICT as an engine of transformation and said:

“For over a decade now we have been leveraging technology for the benefit of our citizens and have seen firsthand how broadband impacts everyday lives of our people.”

“ As we look to the future we realize that we need to do more and faster, the world is waiting and our people are counting on us whether it is central databases of crop yields and market information for farmers, integrated school curricular for pupils, medical records for doctors, entrepreneurial opportunities for the youth,” he said.

President Kagame expressed optimism on the bridging of the existing digital divide as the commission continues to engage with Broadband technologies, creating a future that bypasses the divides.

He congratulated the commission on the decision made to establish a new work group focusing on women and girls in ICT and thanked Dr Rizah Jafarri for the generous contribution that will help support the work group.

“This focus resonates very well with us in Rwanda and I believe widely across the continent and beyond.

We have made practical steps to empower women and girls and even made constitutional provisions to ensure women are accessing opportunities actively including access to the opportunities provided by Broadband,” said the President.

During the meeting, a report on the state of broadband 2012 was also presented by the Secretary General of the ITU, Dr. Hamadoun Toure.

The report indicates that the importance of national policy leadership is now clearly understood by policy-makers and governments around the world. As a result, 119 countries have now developed a national plan, policy or strategy to promote broadband.

The New York meeting follows the Broadband Leadership Summit that was held in Geneva in October 2011, which set broadband targets for increased access and affordability of broadband services by 2015. The Broadband Commission also met in Kigali in September 2011.

President Paul Kagame has called upon world leaders to up the ante in finding lasting solutions to the various conflict spots around the world.

The Rwandan President made the appeal while addressing a gathering of heads of states and governments at the 67^th United Nations General Assembly currently underway in New York.

In an articulate and moving speech, the President made it clear that the continual loss of life and destruction perpetrated by conflict is simply unacceptable, and more need to be done to first and foremost prevent conflict from ever taking root, and also managing those that are already in existence.

“While it may seem that conflict is perennial and its forms increasingly destructive, we have the urgent task of seeking more effective ways to prevent, manage and solve it. The loss we witness or experience on a daily basis – in terms of human life and devastation – is unacceptable” emphasized Kagame.

According to him, “The history of how conflicts have been handled in Rwanda, and indeed in our region shows that improvement is needed. It is our obligation to point this out – not to be critical – but because we subscribe to the ideals and principles on which the United Nations was founded. We can and should do better.”

“Additionally, at a time when wide scale poverty robs too many people of realizing their full potential in life, conflict also detracts us from development”, President Kagame stated.

He had some hard facts to back up his sentiments, pointing out that conflict can have devastating consequences not only for the host country but also her neighbours.

“The stakes are high – a civil conflict costs the average developing country about 30 years of GDP growth and violence can easily spill over borders threatening hard-won progress.”

With Rwanda having come under intense international scrutiny over the last few months after being accused of festering unrest in the neighbouring Democratic Republic of Congo, President Kagame also seized the opportunity to drive home his belief that deep analysis of specific political and cultural contexts of any given conflict is the key to finding lasting solutions, as opposed to broad measures that at times do not apply to the specific issue at hand.

“Too often, the inclination is to parachute into a situation with ready-made answers based on superficial examination of the conflict’s dynamics, doing considerably more harm than good, despite the intentions.”

“There is no one-size-fits-all remedy; these issues are complex and should be approached as such for the best possible outcome.”

Rwanda is currently vying for one of the ten rotating seats at the UN Security Council, which it last held in 1994.

President Paul Kagame also in his keynote speech stressed that regional bodies should be allowed to take the forefront in conflict resolution, since they are the ones best placed to understand the root cause of the conflict and correspondingly the best solution.

“It is increasingly obvious that local or regional initiatives aimed at resolving conflicts yield more positive results because those involved have a deeper understanding of the issues at hand. Their proximity to the conflict makes them more invested in a comprehensive resolution, and enables the necessary support for whatever process is agreed upon. We need to see these initiatives strengthened. We should be highlighting root causes as we address conflicts.”  He stressed.

Most world leaders speaking at the event, most noteworthy being US President Barack Obama; have so far come out in condemnation of the outbreak of violence in various Middle-Eastern countries as Muslims protest an anti-Islam film released on social media site YouTube, which resulted in US Embassies in predominantly Muslim countries such as Syria and Egypt being attacked, culminating in the killing of a top US envoy in Libya.

More than 120 world leaders and envoys are gathered in New York, where the UN is headquartered, for the 67^th regular session of its General Assembly.

The European Union office in Kigali has clarified on what it described as the “recent confusion surrounding the EU’s aid to Rwanda” – following a media frenzy reporting the suspension of aid to Kigali.

“The EU is firmly committed to its partnership with Rwanda in working to eradicate poverty in the country,” said Daniel Schaer, Head of the Political Section, in a statement last evening sent to News of Rwanda.

He added: “Rwanda deserves credit as one of the few Least Developed Countries to achieve the Millennium Development Goals target by 2015.”

A spokesman of the EU foreign office in Brussels reportedly said on Tuesday that a decision had been made to halt all discussions about the bloc’s future aid program for Rwanda. With minutes of the original news report, Rwanda’s foreign affairs minister, Louise Mushikiwabo, tweeted that the story was misleading because no such decision had been made about suspending all aid talks.

The EU office in Kigali has clarified that “the EU will continue its aid programme to Rwanda, implementing its existing projects designed to help the poor, including budget support”.

Contrary to news reports that all future aid programs would remain on hold, the EU Kigali office says instead that “some new decisions” would be “delayed”. This means that discussions may take place on some aid programs as the two sides work out how to restore full cooperation.

The EU Kigali office said in its statement that it was taking note of the “constructive” role Rwanda is playing in eastern DRC.

“We welcome Rwanda’s active role in the reactivation and extension of the joint verification mechanism of the borders between DRC and Rwanda, which started on 14 September,” said Schaer. “This is a constructive step in building confidence and working towards a lasting peace.”

On DR Congo’s role, the EU wants the Kinshasa government to do more especially with reforms of its security forces. “…, it is important that Kinshasa also deliver further reforms of governance and the security sector,” said Schaer.

President Paul Kagame has warned a UN high level summit on DRC against blaming external actors for the problem and seeking external solutions — when such an approach “effectively absolves blame from those with primary responsibility”.

Speaking at a closed door meeting hosted by UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon at UN headquarters, President Kagame said “externalizing” the DRC crisis would not solve the problem.

“The many armed groups in the country are the outcome of a complex, long-standing historical reality,” Kagame reportedly said. “Therefore singling out one group out of many is running away from the actual issue.”

Rwanda is at the centre of a fierce international verbal exchange, during which it is finding itself on the defensive as various quarters accuse the government of links to the Congolese M23 rebels. Three UN reports have been published, all of which Kigali has dismissed every point in them.

Instead, Rwanda’s defense minister Gen James Kabarebe last month revealed damning details about the conflict in DRC. In graphic detail, he named officials who were behind the flow of wrong information being fed to the UN and campaign groups. Gen Kabarebe released details of confidential discussions involving DRC President’s emissaries who had visited Kigali to plead for help.

At some point, Gen Kabarebe revealed how a DRC intelligence chief had found him in his hotel room and pleaded with him for concocting the information that has been published. In one particular case, the UN reports contain the names of Captain who was

It emerged later that the officer was indeed Congolese and had never served in Rwanda’s army, later alone even been to Rwanda. The officer’s ID was released showing he had been a rebel commander before being integrated into the DRC army in 2009.supposedly a Rwandan army officer.

At the UN summit, President Kagame said that solving the crisis will be impossible if the international community continues “to define the issue erroneously,” according to statement issued by Village Urugwiro.

Mr Kagame also told the meeting that a durable solution will only come from addressing the real issues of governance in Congo and dealing with the grievances of its citizens, the statement said.

President Kagame described as “perplexing” the degree to which the international community focuses on the current mutiny at the expense of the much broader challenges present in the DRC, in the eastern region and beyond.

“The problems in DRC are complex and longstanding, and therefore, applying simplistic or expedient solutions to resolve them, without going to their historical and political roots, will only gloss over them but not deal with them definitively,” said Kagame.

Third contingent of FPUs gets ready to leave for Haiti

A third contingent of Rwandan peace keepers to Haiti under the Formed Police Unit 3 (FPU3) have been urged to be disciplined as they execute their duties professionally during their mission to Haiti.

The advice was given by Inspector General of Police (IGP) Emmanuel Gasana during a pre-deployment briefing held at the police General Headquarters in Kacyiru.

“Execute your duties professionally and strive to raise our country’s flag high to make Rwanda a replica country. Rwanda has earned itself a good name on the international scene,” Gasana said on Wednesday.

A contingent of 160 officers under FPU3 is set to depart for the mission to serve under the UN Mission for Stabilization in Haiti (MINUSTAH) mandate.

The contingent led by Chief Supt Desire Twizere will replace the same number under Formed Police Unit 2 (FPU) which successfully completed its nine months mandate and scheduled to return on September 28.

These officers while in Haiti provide humanitarian assistance, conduct patrols and guard VIPs and key installations. They also help in crowd control and provide security of Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs).

The first FPU1 contingent comprising of 160 police officers was deployed in Haiti in January 30, 2011 and was replaced by the same number under FPU2 on December 15, 2011.

The mission was deployed mainly to oversee relief activities after the 7.0 magnitude earthquake hit the country in 2010, killing over 200,000 people and leaving millions homeless.

Rwanda National Police maintains over   450 peacekeepers serving under the UN missions in Liberia, Ivory Coast, Darfur, South Sudan and Haiti.

Rwanda, whose officers have been awarded for their professionalism and discipline in executing their mission duties by the UN, was ranked the eighth country in providing police peacekeepers worldwide by the international community.

The UN also ranked Rwanda the first out of 84 countries in providing female individual police officers. The United Nations has also requested Rwanda to deploy a contingent of FPU in Liberia next year.

The returning contingent suffered a loss after one of the officers was accidentally shot dead by a colleague during night patrols last week.

The European Union on Friday released 47million Euros (US$60m) of its Rwanda aid program – amid conflicting reports that the bloc had suspended funding, the Finance ministry announced.

“Today EU disbursed 47mn € to our bank account as general budget support,” said Economic and Finance minister, John Rwangombwa on his Twitter page.

Early this week, a spokesman of the EU foreign office in Brussels reportedly said the EU had decided to halt talks for a new aid program for Rwanda. However, the story seemed to suggest EU aid had been suspended entirely.

On Wednesday, the EU office in Kigali clarified on what it termed as the “confusion surrounding” EU aid, saying that ongoing aid programs would not be affected. It added the changes, if any, is with the talks that are supposed to work out a new funding arrangement. But even with this, the Kigali Office said only “some programs” would be affected.

Following three contested UN reports about alleged Rwanda government involvement in DRC, several countries announced changes to their support program. But deeper analysis of the changes shows some of the withheld aid money was either not on budget or had not been planned for in Rwanda.

For example, the Dutch government’s withheld money was old funding, that had been off the books since 2009. This means, for the past several years, Rwanda government has not had that money on budget.

As for the UK, the decision to keep the budget funding, was reversed recently.

In commenting about the mix up over EU funding, Rwanda finance minister simply tweeted: “Shame to the haters”.
