{France has declassified documents in the presidential archives relating to the Rwandan genocide, exactly 21 years after its start on April 7, 1994.}<\/p>\n
A decision to declassify the papers was signed on Tuesday and concerns “documents in the Elys\u00e9e relating to Rwanda between 1990 and 1995,” a source in President Fran\u00e7ois Hollande’s entourage told AFP.<\/p>\n
“The president had announced a year ago that France must provide proof of transparency and facilitate remembrance of this period,” the source said.<\/p>\n
The material, which include documents from diplomatic and military advisers and also minutes from ministerial and defence meetings, will be available to both researchers and victims’ associations.<\/p>\n
