French President Emmanuel Macron has made a significant admission regarding France's involvement in the 1994 Rwanda genocide, stating that France and its allies "could have stopped" the genocide but "lacked the will to do so." Macron's statement comes as Rwanda commemorates the 30th anniversary of the genocide.
In a video to be released on social media on Sunday, Macron acknowledges France's failure to act decisively during one of the darkest chapters in Rwanda's history.
This admission marks a significant shift in France's stance on its role in the genocide.
