An oppressive dictator, regardless of his former “glory” should not be praised. When he is killing people in front of your eyes, it’s no use to anyone for you to say, “oh but he saved people in the past.” Yes, that was in the past. What about now? What about the people he killed in the past?

Rwanda’s history is complicated, but there is nothing complicated about the fact that Kagame is oppressive, and that it’s about time for him to change.
