Contents Summary
First part of a television program about the abuses committed in Kigali, Rwanda in 1994 and the fate of the Belgian contingent KIBAT II of the UNAMIR (United Nations Assistance Mission for Rwanda), a U.N. peacekeeping force formed of nine soldiers and led by Lt. Thierry Lotin. On April 7, 1994 the ten Blue Helmets were in charge of escorting Prime Minister Agathe Uwilingiyimana from her residence in the ministerial quarter of Kyovu to the national radio station Radio Rwanda. During this mission, the entire contingent was ambushed and assassinated in the Kigali camp. The program tries to answer to several questions regarding official responsibility, liability and blame. This part features interviews with: Jean-Luc Habyarimana (son of Juvénal Habyarimana, former President of Rwanda), Faustin Twagiramungu (Appointed Prime Minister of Rwanda), Guy Theunis (Journalist and Missionary in Rwanda from Pères Blanc, “White Fathers”), Leopold Greindl (Missionary, “White Fathers”), General Roméo Dallaire (Force Commander of UNAMIR), Agathe Uwilingiyimana (Prime Minister of Rwanda, 1993-1994), and Bernard Ntuhyaga (RAF Staff).
