France under fire

[Assur]

After the genocide against the Tutsi had been stopped because the armed Tutsi had advanced from Uganda to save the few survivors, the French launched "Opération Turquoise". This operation secured an area in southern Rwanda from which the Hutu Militias, the Interwahamwe, could retreat to the Kongo. During this period the French cooperated with the Hutus to kill those Tutsis in the area they controlled!

The US under Clinton/Albright proclaimed during the same time that there was no genocide going in in Rwanda and blocked UN action in Rwanda.
