At the time of the Rwandan genocide Fulgence Kayishema slaughtered 2000 plus Tutsi refugees. With his family, Kayishema fled Rwanda to the Democratic Republic of Congo and had denied who he was when confronted by South African authorities. Investigators claim that he has a support system that assists him in hiding his plans.The article goes on to discuss the rewards being offered for his arrest. The US proposed a $5 million dollar prize to anyone that could point out Kayishema or other possible fugitives involved in the genocide. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Analysis: I think that this is important because both countries have similar diplomatic ties, are apart of the African Union, and have official communication and cooperation between their governing bodies. When a fugitive is arrested in another country it builds a stronger relationship showing that one country cares about the well-being of the other. It&#8217;s almost like keeping a friend accountable and observing the efforts made that guarantee that friendship. A lasting impact is the message that&#8217;s sent out by this happening. That there is no exemption for people involved in the genocide. This also helps in the healing and reconstruction of Rwanda. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Connection to the class:  It demonstrates the commitment of countries to advocate and uphold human rights and also emphasises the importance of preventing genocide. If South Africa didn&#8217;t capture Fulgence, their relationship with Rwanda could have been put at risk and it may have strained ties with other countries. This allows for both to keep up a beneficial trading relationship and builds trust. Overall, the arrest positively benefits both Rwanda and South Africa due to it keeping a healthy trading relationship, benefiting both economies, and leading to the reconciliation of Rwanda which could possibly lead to modernization in both countries. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Link to article(s):https:\/\/www.cnn.com\/2023\/05\/25\/africa\/rwandan-genocide-suspect-south-africa-intl\/index.html Summary: After decades on the run the most wanted fugitive in Rwanda was captured in South Africa.
