“Terrorism, is not caused by religion, or ethnicity, or even poverty, but by bad politics. In order to build resilience to extremist narratives, young people must feel they have a stake in their country. In Rwanda, we still face acts of terrorism, driven by the ideology of genocide. We have responded with force where necessary, but more importantly, we have remained committed to inclusive and accountable governance.It is essential that those who renounce violence, can be accommodated. The Rwanda Demobilisation and Reintegration Programme, a partnership with the United Nations and the World Bank, has provided tens of thousands, with a pathway out of extremism.” - President Kagame speaking at the United Nations Security Council meeting on terrorism at the 69th United Nations General Assembly. https://youtube/watch?v=iHpSH9CzmcI
