“Hatred does not dwell in me and will never define me; I document historical facts that are irreversible,” said Dr. Bizimana.
He made these remarks on Saturday in Paris during a socio-cultural meeting organized by the Ministry of National Unity and Civic Engagement, in collaboration with the Rwandan Embassy in France and Interpeace, which brought together the Rwandan diaspora in Europe.
The minister explained that his statement was in response to social media attacks by individuals dissatisfied with the current Rwandan revolution, spreading false information that could mislead young Rwandans living in Europe and elsewhere in the world.
The event gathered over 500 Rwandans, focusing on strengthening national unity and resilience among the diaspora, particularly the younger generation born or raised outside Rwanda.
Dr. Bizimana thanked participants for attending, describing the gathering as a moment that united Rwandans through their shared love for the homeland.
Through this dialogue, a strong message was delivered to younger generations: preserve the Kinyarwanda language, understand history, and strengthen ties with the homeland.
The meeting provided an intergenerational space where testimonies, exchanges, and knowledge transmission help build collective memory.
