The tribute he pays to Bernard Cussac leads Michel Robardey to get tangled up in his contradictions. France did not want to get involved in the Rwandan-Rwandan conflict, he wrote. He therefore admits that the argument of an aggression against Rwanda by Uganda had no real basis. Yet he still declared in 2007 that this attack is carried out by means of Ugandan troops . So if France did not want to get involved, why did she send troops who took up the cause of one of the camps? Why did France provide him with so many weapons and ammunition? Why did France train him in combat even on the battlefield? Why did France hit the RPF heavily with 105mm shells, as Michel Goya says?

Where is this final condemnation of the Bugesera massacres of 1992? The French Embassy did nothing to protect Antonia Locatelli, but criticized her for rather clumsy statements on RFI. She was killed by two gendarmes after Michel Robardey visited her. A commando recruited among the students of the national school of Gendarmerie of Ruhengeri, sponsored by France, took part in the massacres of Bugesera.

According Michel Robardey and probably other military officers, the signing of the Arusha Accords meant the abandonment of Rwanda by France. This does not fit with what politicians like Hubert Védrine constantly repeat, asserting that France would have done everything to find a political compromise through the Arusha accords. Could there be a difference between public statements and the deep thoughts of our leaders? Would they have had a hard time in their heart of hearts sharing power in Rwanda with the Tutsi forces implied by these peace agreements? Would they have sworn to interrupt this process? His recall to Paris and its replacement by a lieutenant colonel of the special forces would show that Bernard Cussac was not considered in Paris as the most operational leader to manage the coming crisis.
