African Heads of State condemn indictments against RDF officers

PORT CITY OF SHARM EL SHEIKH - African Presidents have condemned in the strongest terms foreign indictments filed against senior officers of the Rwanda Defence Forces (RDF) by two foreign judges. They announced the resolution yesterday at the ongoing African Union Heads of State Summit in the Egyptian port city of Sharm El Sheikh. “The Summit requests the chairperson of the AU Commission to urgently cause a meeting between the AU and EU to discuss the matter with a view to finding a lasting solution to this problem and in particular to ensure that those warrants are withdrawn and are not executable in any country,” says a resolution from the Summit.
