In a statement made in July 2023, the State Secretary in the Ministry of Education, Claudette Irere, detailed the educational exchange facilitated by the nuclear agreement signed with Russia in 2019.
“It has been many years since Rwanda and this country signed agreements, starting in 1970. Since then, we have been sending students, some of whom have returned and are in the country. When you do the math, you find we have more than 100 students,” she said.
She further noted, “In recent days, because we signed other agreements related to nuclear energy, we continue to send more students every year, now totaling over 40 since 2019.”
Meanwhile, Rwanda and Mali have strengthened their bilateral relations with an air transport agreement signed in February 2017, which permits RwandAir to utilize Bamako’s airport for passenger and cargo transport.
Colonel Assimi Goïta, who assumed power in Mali in 2021, has indicated his intention to maintain and enhance these bilateral ties.
Additionally, Rwanda and Ghana signed a cooperation agreement in June 2022 focusing on mutual support, the manufacture of pharmaceuticals and vaccines, and the regulation of these products’ quality.
