Twenty-five years on from the genocide in Rwanda that saw as many as one million people slaughtered, FRANCE 24 interviews President Paul Kagame, alongside EU Development Commissioner Neven Mimica, at the European Development Days event in Brussels.
In the last quarter-century, Rwanda's people, economy and development have moved on from the killings to such a point that the country is often held up to other nations undergoing conflict, violence and political turmoil as a positive example.
However, as Rwanda's GDP per capita is ranked 36th in Africa at $2,081*, government investments such as the multimillion-pound sponsorship of the UK's Arsenal Football Club have raised questions about Kigali's development investment strategy.
Meanwhile, human rights concerns remain: the European Union's 2018 human rights report highlights "serious violations of civil and political rights". FRANCE 24 asks President Kagame why his response to this report is that it is "ridiculous".
And as the EU Commission prepares to renew itself, we ask what priorities the European Union has for development as a whole, and for Rwanda specifically.

if you keep coming back to listen to how H.E president kagame handled this journalist, hit like
I wont get tired of watching this enterview!!!!!!!!!
I fell in LOVE i lisened 10 times
I wanted to keep clicking one millions times but i couldn't.. Kagame is a very special president that knows bw his left nd right. Not like those tired brains other African leaders. How come could these pple dont mind their own business or tackle those that are looting all our money nd dumped in Europe
All African leaders need to observe Mr Kagame. He’s always showing them how to deal with these foreign nations messing around with African countries 😌😌 He absolutely sees them as they are, truly are! And tell them to their faces 😌
Oohhh yeaaaahhhh
"Why don't you talk about human rights violations in your own countries?" Yes Kagame! Great to hear some truth in all this hypocrisy!
DAVOS & CERN = ☠️
If he is a dictator then we need more like him.
@ServantSaved I’ve actually visited Rwanda and even went to Akagera national park. The country looks great. Don’t know what you’re talking about.
I have fallen in the river of love with your comment 😂😂❤
President Paul Kagame is one of the greatest leaders the world has ever had, not just Africa but the world at large. I have huge respect for him. It always fascinates me how he addresses western double standards and superiority complex while maintaining a very calm tone. What he has done with Rwanda is commendable and Africa is in desperate need of leaders like him.
A truly great leader
They never ask about Rwanda having the most women Parliamentarians in the world, or the first drone airport in the world, or the first country to ban plastic bags.
They'd rather die than give a balanced picture.
No that is too much light to shine out of a dark continent. They rather we remain ugly. it suits their history book we stay dark.
@KUSHITIC WONDERING qof nool waan ku salamay.
Or the first country to invent the internet, or the first to have electricity, roads, water to every citizen, or the first to have a multi billionaire President!!!
@@slimpickens5730 you made an account just to be facetious? 🤣🤣🤣 You need to get out more.
This man will go down in history as one of Africa's greatest presidents. He has my respect. 🇧🇼
I strongly disagree. A great President respects his own country's constitution not rewrite it to extend his term. Had he stepped aside after his last term, which the constitution said he was supposed to do, he would have been immortalized as the greatest President in Rwandan history. Not anymore...
U don't know the killer u praising my friend!!!! Get yo facts straight my bro... kagame has killed more people than u will ever think of.. and for that he will pay!!
Agreed
@@fordford514 the truth has a way of coming out..
@@kachain8353 I need to clarify: Of course he is not a saint, I know he has blood on his hands, but, I have to ask, what would you have done if you where him? He was handed an insanely impossible situation, and I'm sorry to say this but I wouldn't have bet 1 cent on the possibility that Rwanda would be where it is today after 1994. I know he is technically a dictator, but if truly his long term goal is to archive a real and sound democracy, acknowledging that the social tension do not allow for it yet,if the alternative is giving in to tribal divisions, and killing of each other, I don't know to which extent I can blame him.
3 years on and Paul Kagame's punchlines 👊🏾 still hit the same 💪🏾
Leaving this comment here so I can come back to watch every time someone likes it.
france talking about human right is a joke
Isn't that crazy, out of all the EU countries France should stay quiet all the money they steal from west Africa
The French politicians have no right to talk about humans rights because:
1. They have covert colonialism in West Africa
2. The French government doesn't respect human rights of the French people, just look at all the videos and photos of French police beating up French civilians in the ongoing "Yellow Vests" protests.
Yep
Yeah France is easily top 3 human rights violators of all time.
@@mtolla05 let's not forget they bankrupt Haiti.
This is why we should never let the western media tell our stories. Much respect to President Kagame, we need more of our leaders to be as courageous as him. UNBELIEVABLE!
Best comment ever, thank you bro!
absolutely, they should. we're grateful for your Excellency P P Kagame
not sure what you mean.. but the discussion was about development countries.. kagame was going off topic a bit and she was trying to drive him back to where they were at.. thats why he was there.. if they wanted a discussion on the migrant crisis and european human rights they would have someone else there to talk about that.. thats why we appreciate western media cause they look at all stories everywhere. and at least european countries have people that voice their opinions on both sides of the field..western media talk about their problems and problems of other people.
@@moekaba Typical biaised response
thicky that’s just a lie...
That moment when you feel so proud 💪🏾to be an African and exceptionally a Rwandan🇷🇼🇷🇼🇷🇼
Really? Do you not see the paradox here. Your guy - the Kagame man - is in Europe to beg for some kintu ki dogo. Are you proud that he is begging but in quite a different way?
Pearl Girl you guys have a smart president 👏🏾✊🏿
@@hueyugandan2537 His not berg anything His défendre Africa humanity... Stop ignorent and hate and négative about Mr. Président... His the best man .

Pearl Girl 🇷🇼🇷🇼 that’s our man
Yeah 'happy 4 u dear
Well done mister president …much love from Morocco 🇲🇦
From the beginning this EU representative looked so nervous in front of kagame because he knows he is not afraid to say the truth
@Nunix Lol The EU rep was wide-eyed, and never interjected, yep, the EU knows they violated many a law, and many a civil right in Africa, their day is nigh, just be still, do not resist, and witness
Get these lady to interview Julius Malema, she will regret the day she was born....
😂😅 Sure!!
She would turn blue in her face
😂😂😂
That will be very interesting,I will love to see that... hehehe😆😆😆
Izzyboy Mokoena 😂😂😂😂
"If it's universal, then you don't have to be the judge yourself. You don't have to tell others what to do". You nailed it Mr President!
it's almost 2023 and I am here once again, admiring Kagame
If he were to become an African president, i would vote for him before the day of presidential elections
Please vote for Paul Kagame on the day of election, so that he wins comfortably. 👍
He literally is a president... of Rwanda lol
You read my mind
First time in Rwanda and I have developed tremendous amount of respect for what Kagame has done in this country. Don't let the media fool you, his people loves him and many can learn from this man blueprint.
You're absolutely right as Rwandan we love him
Huma right n agencies, international media are tools of western countries to continue imperialism & neo colonialism in developing countries
Ooh yeah, we do love him♥️🇷🇼♥️♥️
I am not Rwandan but this is my president 😍😍
I'm not sure it works that way. Lol
Yes!!! I'm not Rwandan either but I like this President!!! He is about the best President I've ever seen, worldwide!!! He has done so much for the people in his country!!!
You don't have to be Rwandese to give your support to en Africa leader who is trying his best to free his country , the question is : why other leaders are still sleeping?time to wake up to be one Nation . In short time we can change Africa to a paradise for Africans
@UMURERWA Ange Dorine l would like to visit can l have your contact
He's the Anti-Obama.
Who are u ??😂😂😂 much love from Sierra Leone 🇸🇱
Am a Congolese and I love Kagame .. very smart
Julius Malema would have said ‘you must listen to me unless you want to interview yourself’
Africa is awakening 👊🏿👊🏿👊🏿
😂😂😂😂 that is a perfect answer. Someone needs to tell that buffoon, Piers Morgan, this retort one day. He irks me when he starts shouting at his guests.
casmuden 😂😂😂😂 you are very right. I read your comment with his accent. We need more black men who can carry themselves and feel more superior than the white man.
🤟😂😂😂😂😂 my guy

"Education is not only about access, but quality as well". Absolutely well said
Any one who wants a PhD. should be given one. Hell the head of Al Qaeda is a medical doctor. Cairo U. Work with a BSEE from that school.
Not at the taxpayers expense. When are people going to realize that a select few should be given the right to an education while others suffer. This is what actually occurs. Ask any Prof to submit their time for free and guess the response you will receive. Yet they expect taxpayers to pay for something the majority do not have access to during their life.
@@drdecker1 I assume you live in a country that kick out the Colonizers. In the west educations is free, in fact it's against the law not to educate your child. If your child is smart college is free. If you would have kept the colonialist you to would have this. Your grandfather brags about kick out the colonialist? He did this to you.
thats why he sent his kids to U.S.A.
we 9k610 it was his children’s decision they are old enough now
The final look on the face of Mr. Neven the white guy was like, "Sheesh, don't look at me. You brought this on yourself!" 😂😂😂
So true. He was about to laugh 😂
😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂

I always watch this interview, over and over! H.E P.kagame is a man of all seasons! He puts the interests of the people of Rwanda first and others later. What u will ever think abt him in a negative way from other parts of the world is different from the reality on the ground. As a Rwandan, im always and i will alwz be on his side, because what he's doing for our Country and its people is remarkable. Never confuse the opposition and the Tutsi genocide deniers, in the actual sense, those deniers are the perpetrators of the Tutsi genocide that took place in Rwanda. They are still roaming free in European countries! Longlive Your excellency P.Kagame.
This President got brains, a deep thinker. Love the way he handled the journalist. Love from Nigeria 🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬 flying the 🇷🇼🇷🇼🇷🇼
This kagame killed people in our country République démocratique of Congo...Hé is à war criminal
Belgium a.k.a white people killed millions of Congolese too in massacres not a war a typical genocide and it seems like you somehow forget about it. The evil one is only kagame!!! What about white people? And that's actually his point. We focus much about what happens during wars and war crimes in Africa by accusing our leaders and we forget completely about the role of white people in all this. White people are not angels not saints and they will never be. A Congolese should have to see this. Kagame maybe he could change white people will not
Please people do some research before you praise this son of Lucifer a.k.a the frog who wanted to become as big as an ox. No one would tolerate what kagame has done to the Congo. Would Nigerians appreciate if their neighbor the republic of benin constantly caused conflicts and destabilized Nigeria, and became the world number 1 exporter of crude oil without having oil ?
kibaba kibaba you don't know what you're saying you're just like that lady 😅😅 the mind he got have no time to waste doin that !
@@enlightenedofficial9940 you seem to know him better tell me what his army Was doing in 1996 and 1998 until la now in RDC ? ??
President Kagame was so chill even with her great disrespect. I tip my hat to this man. I'm excited to see a New Africa and watching the process this far is amazing.
@Nunix no interrupting him while he speaks is disrespectful but am not surprised thats how white supremacy are brought to disrespect others opinions unless otherwise you agree with them.
@Nunix thats the point if it was a black reporter she wouldn't be that disrespectful in the first place . When she was talking to the eu pre she allowed him to speak she didn't give the pre of rwanda the same respect and that is why the president addressed her they way he ddi telling her to off her supremacy . I wish you peace too
You don't know what you are talking about
Never get used to this interview... 2years ago but still come to listen to it. Proudly African and Rwandan.... thank you my President PK for being such a leader 😍
firm, gracious, in spite of the prejudice and condescending undertones. I celebrate you President Kagame
I don't even see why he has to travel to sit and listen to this idiot trying to humiliate their effort. Mr. President you don't need to justify yourself to the world. Your duty and responsibility are to your own people and your African brothers and sisters.
This kind of journalism is not worth your time our dear President. Bravo on the superiority complex rebuke, yours is a voice that will be respected.
@Nunix I respect your point of view. Nobody has called him a saint, but at least he didn't cower away and make excuses. Why is it wrong for an African to stand up for Africans?
@Nunixthis wasn't meant to be an issue, there are no perfect leaders and I cannot speak for all Rwandans. Neither will I use this forum to express my limited view of things. I wish you well.
Iam Rwandan🇷🇼 And this is my President 🇷🇼🇷 🇼
Be very proud of him and please promote Rwanda with CZcams videos and show how beautiful your country is and all the improvement. Pass the message, you all need to overflow the internet with these videos.
Hello giga byte, I hope you still alive.
I am Kenya and I wish my country ever had a president like this.
Why has it taken me so long to watch this.. Brilliant man. The people of Rwanda must be very proud of their son.. We need more leaders like him in Africa
This man is truly outstanding
Trust me, we are.
Even the EU commissioner was not comfortable as he was speaking, he has to carefully choose his words.Yes we can teach them how to respect us.Congratulations to our President, we're proud of you
The Hutu and Tutsi peacefully coexisted for hundreds of years before European colonialism..
Yes killing farmers on the farm, pregnant farmers wives and undergraduate and graduate children helping their parents in my state they have to abandon two towns because of them
In fact they have become terror kidnapping and demanding ransome if your family don't have they kill the victim to organ reapers
They cause the problems and they bring the solutions it's all part of their game.
Of course I read that in ' How Europe Underdeveloped Africa' by Walter Rodney.
Preach louder !
Those who violated human rights are trying to teach you human rights now, feel sorry to my people
jojo lover they teach rigths they dont obey
Gustavo ZAR only those who see above skin color can discern between people like Mugabe and Smith, don’t forget that Paul Kagame received education in the United States. We are at war with the global cabal.
Absolutely
@Nunix many of kagames people are not complaining and if you research enough you'll see the guy is actively engaging in activities to improve his nation . If anyone defies the westerners and refuse to obey their draconian decrees they are branded as dictators by the likes of yourself. There is a quote that says , Before you start pointing fingers , make sure your hands are clean. What have the french achieved in terms of human rights to take the standpoint of morality???And just becoz they receive western aid doesn't mean they have to get on their knees and lick your boots.If you don't like the way the government runs the nation then feel free to withdraw your aid.

Sometimes I fail to comprehend how Kagame does this: remain humble and truthful even to small brained people like this girl. I really admire his level of intellect; he reminds me while I was an African when I still could tolerate idiots and respect their magnified perception of themselves. I don't know how I lost that.
Still have to he sane view
I can't comprehend though,about how u interpret "humble" when at sudden he obviously turned into defensive(when the topic get into human rights) and emotionally attacking her personally when in fact she had a few times mention if it according to some report.
@@dzafriezakey4881 she attacked herself on human rights and made herself a victim of her ignorance
When you speak the truth, you will find it easy to do what this president does with full confidence. He is a truthful man. He calls a spade a spade, no need to twist it, say it as it is. He is "realistically truthful". So, he has nothing to fear. He is therefore able to speak the truth and critiques your lies boldly. Do you also notice he is always calm??? These may be the qualities you have lost or forgotten due to stress
I liked when he said: "You shud not tell people what to do or to do to your satisfaction, Who are you?😆"...She was not ready 🤣Then she replied:"I'm not sure if u are talking about me personally"....need to be extra careful when in dialogue with People like president Kagame, they can turn your own words against u🧐
In order for a solution to be found a problem has to be pointed out or else there will be no solution. The implication is most of the time those accusations (human rights abuses) are brought up they lack examples when they were done or the circumstance around incidents that may be perceived as such. As far as Rwanda and Rwandan leaders are concerned they feel like they have taken a strong stance against human rights abuses. Imagine the place the country was starting from the year 1959-1994 the Human rights abuses were at an all-time high especially the persecution and discrimination of the Tutsi( social class). You have to understand that Rwanda and the people of their diaspora where ever they might be, have a history and this has to be considered or anyone can invent a context and choose to interpret however they choose appropriate for their intentions. We have seen what Belgium was able to do (issuing identity cards and instigating hate using false rhetoric among the uneducated masses ) and France (France standing a watch during the genocide, arming, training, and aiding the pro genocide government in the battlefield and financially ) the same people questioning Rwanda about Human rights abuses after solving the problems they created this seems quite cynical(maybe another methodology for the 21st century of staying relevant and maintaining influence/control ). Rwanda has taken strong and proper stances against human rights abuses for all its people regardless of class and gender, Like removing the identity cards that allowed discrimination, providing education to the masses both regarding society and sciences, women empowerment in all aspects of society where Rwanda shines the most in the world and many more things I wish I had time to list. On top of that Rwanda is an open and safest country in the world where anyone can come in and look for themselves when the journalist claim otherwise without pointing at a particular example with circumstance around it they are just being intellectually lazy but I hope people can see where the frustration is with President Paul Kagame
@@satisfysmack9935 Never in my life I have read a clear and well explained comment on CZcams. Thanks for clarifying even more the responses of president Kagame in this interview. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Pre. Kagame talks about what every proud open minded African person is thinking of! What a great president he is! '' We're the UN so stop belitling African leaders'' well said sir.
She's going to remember this interview for the rest of her life. Well said my president.
am pretty sure she would have liked if it was dem days whereby the interviews were naa recorded so tha she could FORGET IT THERE N THEN..lol
Not only forgetting but I'm sure next time she interviews someone else she'll be more polite and less that condescendent. Thank you Excellency.
Love And only love
Was she not supposed to ask the questions about human rights and justice for all?
@@oliviermuhigirwa6576 she would first ask them to her European countries.they only target Africans
This has nothing to do with Africa people! Kagame is a corrupt leader who has built his country by destabilizing and stealing the resources of Dr Congo. This man caused the death of a million of his own people to become president. The mask is off kagame... The blood of Congolese is crying for vengeance
I'm not from Rwanda but I must say this is the best president in the world, I can't believe we still have African leaders like this. There's hope for a free Africa.
He schooled the interviewer, especially at the last part. He's a very smart man.
He punished her so well...
I didn't know he will find away to put her back in her place...she absolutely forgot that she was talking to a President...
You don't spit out words as if she was in a market place talking to a street vendor...
We need more presidents like this in Africa
how i wish it was the chief commander of the red see(malema)

Hahhh and then ended the conversation
@@MilesBellas Kagame made his position clear... Full Stop
You named her right...she is really a petty journalist...the interview seemed bigger than she could handle
That's not a fair characterization of her. Could she have handled this better? Yes. Was she petty? No. Since when is asking relevant question about a country's human rights record 'petty'? Kagame's style of authoritarian rule has done wonders for the country. It has brought both political and economic stability, and Rwanda couldn't have done better under any other leader. Nonetheless, the man is no saint. The country is not perfect. It seems to me a reasonable question to bring up in a discussion about the country's development goals to also talk about human right violations i.e: political dissenters being jailed, businesses being hijacked by the ruling party (FPR), journalists being shutdown etc

Establishment joiurnalists get parked into very lucrative editorships and such when they are well past due. Give me one “journalist” who stuck with the Iraq has WMDs that got unceremoniously expelled. In contrast, the like of Chris Hedges, a journalist who was actually reporting facts on the ground and countering the official narrative on Iraq was sidelined by the New York Times. Same with Syria, Libya, Venezuela, Iran...
I feel you guys! Media in the west always tries to talk down on African countries. It hurts to see how such a great process seen in Rwanda is being ignored. Instead, they listen at unqualified people judging African countries from the other side of the Mediterranean.
Bless up Man
This is utter rubbish. Kagame is a brutal dictator that has sanctioned assassination of opponents (as confessed by his co-conspirators) the man has trampled human rights imprisoned his critics like Grace Ngabire and political rivals like Diane Rwigare for the crime of daring to challenging him.
Kagames foolish arguments are the very same ones murderous dictators through out history have made. Even Gaddafi, Idi Amin Mobutu etc all used to spout the same rubbish
@@JK-xk7km I get your point JK, but en-light me is it not true that Rwanda is Taking off in terms of human development based on the figures that we see on the internet. despite the assassination of opponents is there meaningful development in Rwanda thank you for you responds
@@coldpatch751 Those people don’t just sit there and merely interrogate the president like they’re doing in this interview. They also manufacture a bunch of lies to use in their attacks.
See for example the ones exposed in an article called “The Rwigaras verdict and the unintended consequences”
cold patch Regarding this so called "human development" I think you should actually visit Rwanda (and not the potemkin village known as Kigali...go to the slums and vilages) the talking to the villagers wont get you any truth because people are scared to death of kagames spies) May be you should cross over to neighboring Uganda particularly the refugee camp of Nakivale where half a million Rwandese refugees are stuck living in squalor unable to take part of this so called development utopia. (If that trip proves too costly then read those reports cited in this video and tell me how shooting people so hungry they are stealing bananas to survive translates as human development)
Take a look at Syria, Venezuela Libya, Iraq, (heck even Uganda early seventies under Idi Amin was one of the most advanced nations in Afica,) that used to boast of development statistics far superior to Rwanda and all reduced to rabble. Only fools look at bricks and mortar and conclude a country is developing.
Realists look at the most down trodden, the in a country, they look at justice, they look at the law they focus on human rights.
The most developed countries in the world coincidentally have the best human rights records and justice systems that are the foundation of human development. The least developed are the ones with the worst human rights records and almost all have some brutal dictator pretending to be looking out for the interests of his people while murdering all who disagree with him.
I wish we could also listen to the interview he gave when he was still fighting for the liberation of Rwanda
I like him a great African leader. He is my hero.Hailed .A decent very intelligent African leader.

@@satisfysmack9935 I understand your point. But the hatred created by the then heartless President of Rwanda Mr Habyarimana is the main causes of Rwanda today's problems. He wanted to whip out and killed all Tutsis people. That is the main problem. So that bad spirit is still chasing all Rwanda people Hutus and Tutsis. This is madness. It is not easy to solve this problem.

Guys I might be going too far
However I don't like the way she was interjecting Mr President like she feels superior.
I bet she will never do that to Emmanuel Macron.
I completely agree. I actually got angry at that part.
Nahh.. she ll do it to Macron too.. people don't respect presidents that much in " the west" believe me
Valeden Mushyville it’s the mentality they all have like you must hear their view and they are in charge. And when she gets shut down by the person to be interviewed, they bring on the sexism card immediately to get public sympathy.
Just few days ago, an American governorship candidate says he doesn’t want to ride alone in his bus with a female reporter and ask her to come with a male colleague guest what she turned it to: that cos she’s a female. Meanwhile this guy made it clear: so he could have a witness should there be any claim that his political opponent could use against him. It’s a thing with them all. They just want to dominate
Gosh that woman pissd me offf ...President Kagame is soo diplomatic..i would have dealt with that piss of ....
When you are a beggar, you don't get the luxury of respect
Getting owned: "You're asking questions and you're giving yourself answers 😂😂😂"
🤣🤣🤣 that killed me too
Haha and he asked "who are you?"
🤣🤣🤣🤣
The kind of leaders we need in Africa
His a rare breed.
Paul kagame the man
We are tired of been ruled.......
@Fancy Llama While I must say I love the way he comes out more specially when interviewed by whites He presents himself with courage and Rwanda has made a shift economic wise he has changed alot of things in his era.... following his leadership closely
I never thought Kagame is this smart and with clear thought train. Also, remember he may have learned everything in French yet he is fluent in English.
He didn't learn everything in French, but his wife and children did.
This is where our confidence comes from.....proud of you my president
Children’s are going to bed very hungry in USA 🇺🇸 canada 🇨🇦 Uk 🇬🇧
for why?
But they don't talk about it, they only see africa
F Zulu Africa is much better than Uk USA 🇺🇸,, Africa is on everyone dinning table ie mobile phones technologies ect, how can Africa be poor when all the technologies we human beings are using coming from Africa?
Yes lots and lots of homeless in Canada
This is why I hate the aid programs from these countries. If there really was no homeless in England I would not mind the aid given to others but as long as we have homeless here, aid should be stopped elsewhere!!!
“Some people don’t have time to invest in reading about things...” I can’t believe how patient he is with these interviewers.
It’s always someone outside of the Community that tries to tell the community what is good for them. She is trying to get them to focus on what she wants when that isn’t even having the biggest impact on their community.
She keeps looking at the white guy like "help me dude" 😂😂😂💔
Damn, that's hilarious !! lol

😂😆

The way she mentioned "Since the year 2000" to make it seem like Kagame has overstayed in power, that's a weak way to introduce a person of Importance, then the other dude is introduced as "the man who is in charge of it all".
She fuck’n tried it. He checked her in the end.
Pathetic, _really!_ . . . . 😖
I thought I was the only one that noticed it..The audacity of the journalist
Tekena Reuben the caucasity is very real in that one
And she didn't even look his way whilst introducing him.
But looked at the European whilst introducing him.
Thf subtleties of white supremacy.
Somali we need brother like this one, much love n respect to Rwanda and all the Africans doing wat their ppl need
They were also there talking all that human rights BS to Singapur's former president Lee Kuan Yew and who fortunately didn't give a damn. Today Singapur went from being one of the poorest countries in the world to one of the richest.
The EU commissioner was so afraid when our Paul kageme was talking😂..
Because they all believe what media is showing, and not what they show
Yeah...i felt he was a bit uncomfortable at some point
because kagame is rude,you don't use words like nonsense in a civil conversation,that tells you why he jails people who ask him hard questions and dare to oppose him in his country just the way the lady was pressing him.a true dictator.
@@mealexmailex311 His facial expressions really said much
Rahiraaaaaa!
Who are you ?? 😂😂
Africa is back 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
We love Kagame ♥️♥️
Ture son of Afrika.Rwanda first.
Africans must unite
@Nunix
You have to understand children don't have self awareness. Don't you see in most of the things we blacks do we act like children? Arrogance is also a trait of self-awareness, especially when you can't wait to become self-sufficient before you exhibit it! Sad indeed! I guess no one will be able to contain our arrogance once we can build societies that are NOT shitholes all by ourselves!
@nigward_01
Why don't you stop them from taking? I bet you the western world could still be importing slaves from Africa if that was still part of the modern world!
@nigward_01
Once again listen to yourself: "...the WHITE man won't let us...", which means even in your denial you can't help but admit that "the WHITE man" is superior. Perhaps doing self-reflection among ourselves to hopefully discover why that is the case is the way to go, instead of that fake arrogance which does nothing but help to make fools out of ourselves.
I can watch this video hundred times 😂 This man is so special
I always come here to reread compliments comments to my president H.E Paul kagame and that's makes me proud of being an African from Rwanda 🇷🇼🇷🇼🇷🇼🇷🇼
If all African countries had a present like this we was gonna own our Africa soon
Africa would be a better place if we have leaders like this ... all the way from 🇳🇬 much love for you Mr president 👊
Kagame is the way to go
True. 🇭🇹 🇭🇹
Wake up Nigeria please. We have the energy to make it happen.
@@eb127 not only denying the act and actions of one genocide, the tutsi genocide to be exact.. your empty head also gave you the ego to deny the holocaust... get a life

"You are not the one to determine what gets discussed in a conversation... who are you!!"
Daniel Gomes who are you. That’s the afrIcan thing. We don’t take BS. Most especially from a woman of sort
@Nunix 😌 small pp energy...
Can this journalist answer this question: Is colonization a human right abuse???
I wish he asked her that..she could have fainted.
Thanks very much our President ,We are learning from you not only as Rwandan but even other africans. I think I will always listen this more than hundreds times.
Much respect ✊🏾 Paul Kagame from Senegal 🇸🇳
blood on His filthy hands.
Mansa is a strong name mansa musa
African leaders should learn a lot from President Kagame.
He tells the truth about the westers..
Who are they to judge us?
Well done Mr President👍👍👍
We love you so much.
We can tell you about not cutting off the arms of children. Well done Rwanda.
kagame keep killing people in Congo drc
Kagame is a corrupt dictator, mass murderer. Don't be so gullible.
Fab Fab the Congolese people are mad😂😂
@@julianmbula3633 Fool
Lots respect and love from Ethiopia 🇪🇹❤❤
One love
Wow! What a fantastic man! If all African leaders were sensible and stood their grounds like Kagame....
Enough respect for you Sir! A true son of Africa
"Who are you?" That question rattled the dingbat of a interviewer. The confused and defeat look on her silly face was priceless. My respect for Paul Kagame has notched up a million times. That reporter should be schooled on how to be open-minded when conducting interviews.
@Nunix See, it is so easy to sit behind a screen and vilify or push an absurd false agenda just like this interviewer was trying to do. The disrespect and bias was top-notch in these 25 minutes and you condoning that type of behavior and unprofessionalism says a lot about you as a person. Then again, he did talk about superiority complex didn’t he?
H.E. Paul Kagame has fought for Rwandan human rights from trenches to negotiation tables. The ascending development indicators are a proof of that. Freedom, political stability, gender equality, Medical access, education, food security,...are all rights that Rwandans deserve and have been ( and are still being) granted through this man. And those other abuses that you are talking about... well, me and other 11+ million of Rwandans can testify of the absurdity of these claims. I would suggest that you review the agenda of those pushing that human rights abuse narrative, and while you’re at it, probably ask genuine questions to the same Rwandans YOU are trying to victimize. Of course, that’s if you are interested in learning and not bandwagoning on this false « sheepy sheep » (your words) narrative.
Governance has no one formula. But Rwandans CHOSE a type of it that works for Rwandans with H.E Paul Kagame as the head of state for as long as we want and he can. If that doesn’t float your boat, well, we will sip on our tea regardless.
@Nunix have you been to Rwanda?
It the most united, colorful, and peaceful country on this continent.
I just don't understand why white people are so eager to speak for us. even if we don't have any problems.
And that lady was rude, mean, biased, and disrespectful to our president which is unacceptable.
👏thank you ..mr president.. thank you
For me, a french should never open his mouth and talk about Rwanda, it's taboo, it's not logical, it's ironical, it's just impossible. They perpetrated genocide in Rwanda
I support you 100%....
Afcfta is for Africa and aid is yesterday issue ...
EU commissioner is gunning for africa material s- He mayst just stand back - he will be attended to later ...( he must come lecture us about internal affairs of Rwanda - as we dont do the same to any Eurpean countries.)
This lady is quite clearly from the United kingdom, England to be precise.
Agree with that.
In order for a solution to be found a problem has to be pointed out or else there will be no solution. The implication is most of the time those accusations (human rights abuses) are brought up they lack examples when they were done or the circumstance around incidents that may be perceived as such. As far as Rwanda and Rwandan leaders are concerned they feel like they have taken a strong stance against human rights abuses. Imagine the place the country was starting from the year 1959-1994 the Human rights abuses were at an all-time high especially the persecution and discrimination of the Tutsi( social class). You have to understand that Rwanda and the people of their diaspora where ever they might be, have a history and this has to be considered or anyone can invent a context and choose to interpret however they choose appropriate for their intentions. We have seen what Belgium was able to do (issuing identity cards and instigating hate using false rhetoric among the uneducated masses ) and France (France standing a watch during the genocide, arming, training, and aiding the pro genocide government in the battlefield and financially ) the same people questioning Rwanda about Human rights abuses after solving the problems they created this seems quite cynical(maybe another methodology for the 21st century of staying relevant and maintaining influence/control ). Rwanda has taken strong and proper stances against human rights abuses for all its people regardless of class and gender, Like removing the identity cards that allowed discrimination, providing education to the masses both regarding society and sciences, women empowerment in all aspects of society where Rwanda shines the most in the world and many more things I wish I had time to list. On top of that Rwanda is an open and safest country in the world where anyone can come in and look for themselves when the journalist claim otherwise without pointing at a particular example with circumstance around it they are just being intellectually lazy but I hope people can see where the frustration is with President Paul Kagame
@@bh2861 Don't forget she is On a French news channel spewing French points of view and she admitted it at 23:25
Can African leaders be assertive like this? Thank you Your Excellency. Rwanda, as well as Africa, is blessed to have you.
The clapback was painful to watch. she forgets the problems in Africa started because of European greed.

Yoh yoh yoh 🤭🤭🤭 Mr President slamming them openly 😂😂
Love from Namibia 🇳🇦
Hello, my fellow Namibian
African With No Flies Hi, hope you are doing well Mr.
This lady is very disrespectful, she should be banned from journalism. Much respect to to his excellency the President Paul Kagame for his achievements.
@Le Colosse explain
Mysta Legacy right this Channel France24 only speak about poverty and war in french speaking africa
Sure Kayumba. ..but my Leader Kagame did not hesitate but has managed to put her on air... mentally naked 🇿🇦😅
She's trying so hard to make him look bad. I love this man's responses, the best african president I've ever seen 👏. I wish you the best looking forward to seeing a new africa with more leaders like this.
She didn’t allow the president to finish his point yet she expected him to fall into her “version of questionnaire”
I'm not Rwandan but wherever I'm listening to this man l forgets about the value of my bundles. He is just amazing and needs support from every well meaning African patriot. Much love for you from Zambia 🇿🇲 Live long Kagame, Africa shall be great soon
Respect from Uga 🇺🇬
Glad he called her out. Her attitudes digusting. Very unprofessional. It's like they didn't even do research on Rwanda.
I have never been so satisfy with an African president response to these stupid and nonsense questions but president Kagame really slam-dunk this fool. I love him to so much.
I realised after watching several interviews involving African presidents, the goal is always simple...crucify them but am happy that is changing now, the likes of Kagame, Magafuli, etc are changing that...
Not crucify my brother, but ridicule belittle them
...and julius malema
@@kdesso in a very condescending way. But today they have met their match.
@Kdesso...I used the word crucify ironically inadvertently it means what you've said and more...
@@adamsakolgo5817 it's Magufuli not magafuli
This lady got the lesson she will never forget.
@Nunix lol u are everywhere’s defending your kinda seems like “who are u applies to u” Rwanda is doing well , if this lady cared about human right tell her to interview french soldiers who aided Genocidaire which has facts btw.
This interview tought me to remain humble regardless of the situation
Even the EU commissioners trying to tell her she's barking up the wrong tree, but arrogance and ignorance wouldn't allow her to stop.
Nice one....NOT.
Western journalist still in "colonial operation mode" versus african leader. The only pity, Europe still does not realize, it is 2019 these days, not 1919.
What a shame!
Well said
It s ok... let them (those in colonial operation mode) keep on dreaming to be the superior masters until one day when they will wake up and realize they weren't just dreaming but have been in a colonial coma for many years and that the world has moved on ever since...
Shame on them.
The suckers don't have respect of Africans cause they think that if Africans become to Better they can still destroy Africa using a cause of Africans are never one , never together.which is the most weak point of Africans, Western use
I disagree. If his own people are too afraid to challenge him, who is going to do it? After all he was given GBP64million in aid and will now spend GBP30M on advertising Rwanda on Arsenal strip etc. How much will he personally benefit from this? Rwanda has received GPB3B in aid for 12Million people.
@@daloxtutu2025 Europe is not one. Asia is not one. The Americas are not one. Why should Africa be one?
Just because we have the same skin color doesn't mean we are the same
If we as Africans have not even managed to develop our individual countries and civil war is still common then Africa as a country would be a much worse place to live.
We need this kind of President in Africa the truth shall set you free thanks President kagame love the way you spoke
Europe and Africa are not 2 similar continents. Europe is NOT a continent, it's a peninsula.
The title should be “Who Are You?”
Kagame is my G, gotta love the way he handles the interview
Imagine death brain of Emmanuel Macron is telling Africans that being a gay is the greatest civilisation what a nonsense.
Much Kudos Paul Kagame always speak your mind we are with u.🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬
Happy of you my President. "You are actually talking of the hell in Rwanda, and ignoring the hell we have been through, we stood against and sorted it out when you were there just talking about"
Yes, 'who are you' to be preaching to Rwanda about human rights? You are no match for President Kagame, such a wise and intelligent man.
Love from Botswana🇧🇼🇧🇼 President Kagame.
CZcams needs to incorporate a laughing button in this platform, like and dislikes are not enough to express how humorous the conversation really is!

The best comment this month. What a great suggestion.
I will re-use this statement (and of course give credit to you.)
Rolling on the floor lafta 🤣
This is how a true leaders represents their people in terms of this kind of conversation, some leaders are getting insulted by this peoples and kept mute. He spoke as if he was adviced by Muammar Gaddafi before the interview "who are you" to tell us what is for our selves?.
She got SMASHED DOWN big time! The other interviewee was thinking 'Don't go there, don't go there young lady'.🤣
