".......Simmering under the surface and threatening to explode after Kagames departure are ethnic and political tensions that now go mostly unaddressed. The hostility between Tutsis and Hutus is far from ended, and the governing system is entrenching one-man rule instead of building effective checks and balances. Progress is stunted by a lack of freedom, a repressive media environment, little protection for human rights and the sidelining of political opponents...."
".....Nowhere is the need for international pressure on Rwanda to change its ways more evident than in Kigalis stance toward its neighbor, the Democratic Republic of Congo. Many of the Hutu perpetrators of the 1994 genocide fled to eastern Congo after a Tutsi-led opposition army seized control of Rwanda. Looking to prevent any future threat to their rule, Kigalis leaders have been active in the Congo ever since. While Rwandan interference is largely due to a longstanding ethnic rivalry and the desire to create a protective buffer along the border, control of the regions mineral wealth is another key factor....."
"...... its time to take off the kid gloves when dealing with this tiny, landlocked country with outsized influence in East Africa. If theres any hope of Rwanda winning truly lasting stability, it must change course and stop fueling conflicts across its borders....."
