Today, the Vice President of the Senate Nyirahabimana Soline addressed the 152nd Inter-Parliamentary Union Assembly on the theme of “Nurturing Hope, Securing Peace, and Ensuring Justice for Future Generations.” Thirty-two years ago, #Rwanda endured the darkest chapter in its history, the Genocide against the Tutsi. The country was close to becoming a failed state, the hope for the future generation seemed almost extinguished. However, with the visionary leadership, we embarked on a journey of rebuilding unity, peace and justice. We established strong and accountable public institutions and inclusive governance. We restored the rule of law, and fostered democratic practices that focus on citizen participation.” #IPU152
