Vice President Retired General Dr Constantino Chiwenga is
in Rwanda where he is attending the commemorations that mark the 25 anniversary
of the Rwanda genocide.
Vice President Chiwenga joins several leaders from across
the continent that are gracing the
Rwanda genocide commemorations.
Upon arrival at the Kigali International Airport, Vice
President Chiwenga was welcomed by Rwanda government officials and Zimbabwe’s
charge d’affairs in Tanzania Martin Tavenyika.
Zimbabwe and Rwanda have in the second republic enjoyed
close cordial relations hence the country’s stance of standing in solidarity
with the Rwandese.
With the United Nations in 2003 recognising 7 April as the
international day of reflection on the genocide in Rwanda, the East African
nation will reflect on a day which marked the beginning of a brutal genocide
which claimed the lives of more than 800 000 people.
