Abstract
- A cry of alarm to denounce the situation in Rwanda: Bernard Kouchner returned this morning from Kigali. He describes an abominable situation, massacres of innocent people and he calls on Western countries to act as quickly as possible.
- Bernard Kouchner: "Will we understand once and for all that what has been called the right of interference is only a rapid action force, under the flag of the United Nations but which can be an African force, come at the slightest warning and better still before the massacre. It will be called prevention, the right to interfere, as you like. It would prevent the massacre. What can we do now? Do you know why we never intervene? It's not pretty, they say it's neocolonialism. They say we don't have soldiers, we don't have money and we has no political will. Well after the massacre you find soldiers, you find money and you find political will. Only people are dead."]
