Asserts Rwanda's pro-free-market president. From The New Times (Rwanda): "President Paul Kagame [on Monday] lashed out at Western countries and International organisations, saying they are the cause of the ongoing crisis in the eastern part of the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC)."
More: "One of the militias operating in the troubled region is the Democratic Forces for the Liberation of Rwanda (FDLR), a terrorist group mainly composed of elements responsible for the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi in Rwanda. 'This problem has not been caused by Rwanda and it has not been abetted by Rwanda. On the contrary, in the last four years, nobody in this region, on this continent and beyond, has worked very hard to see peace coming to our country and our neighbouring country than Rwanda,' he said."
The article continues about Congo's conflict: "Kagame pointed out that as the two countries were close to restoring peace, when the international community intervened and 'twisted everything leaving the two countries in extreme misunderstandings and putting all the blame on Rwanda'. '...Actually the problem of DRC came from outside....it was created by the international community - our partners - because they don't listen, they are so arrogant to listen and in the end they don't actually provide a solution they just keep creating problems for us. We know better our problems, we know better about this region's problems,' the President added."
