Uko Guverinoma y'u Rwanda yabyifashemo
Guverinoma y'u Rwanda yo ikimenya iby'igitero cya Kagitumba, yifashe nk'itunguwe nyamara amateka agaragaza ko n'umuturage usanzwe yari azi ko impunzi zitegura gutera. Ingengabitekerezo y'irondabwoko rirwanya Abatutsi yahise yongera kubura mu mbwirwaruhame no mu itangazamakuru ry'u Rwanda bakwirakwiza ko ngo Inkotanyi ari inyenzi zo mu 1960 ziyuburuye.
U Rwanda rwatangiye urugamba rwa dipolomasi rwo kwerekana ko rwatewe na Uganda ndetse n'ibihugu bikoresha Icyongereza bigamije gukuraho ubutegetsi bukoresha Igifaransa mu Rwanda. Ingabo za Zaïre, u Bubiligi n'u Bufaransa zahise zitabara Habyarimana.
Imbere mu gihugu kandi hatangiye gushakishwa amayeri n'ibihuha bigamije gutuma Abatutsi bibasirwa, nk'aho tariki 4 Ukwakira 1990 habeshywe ko Inkotanyi zageze muri Kigali, Abatutsi basaga ibihumbi icumi bagafungwa. Nyuma abandi Batutsi bagiye bicwa mu Mutara, Kibilira, Byumba n'ahandi.
Ibihugu bitandukanye byakomeje guhatira Habyarimana na FPR Inkotanyi ngo bijye mu biganiro, hanyuma tariki 29 Werurwe 1991 haba ibiganiro bya N'sele muri Zaïre, hanemezwa amasezerano yo guhagarika intambara hagati y'impande zombi.
Ni amasezerano yasinywe impande zombi zidahuye imbonankubone, ahubwo babaga bari mu byumba bitandukanye, abahuza bakaza kuvugisha uruhande rumwe, bakajya no kuvugisha urundi ibyumvikanyweho bikandikwa.
Nubwo amasezerano yasinywe, u Rwanda na FPR byakomeje kuregana kuba buri wese atubahiriza ibiri mu masezerano. Leta ya Habyarimana kandi yahise itangira imbwirwaruhame zerekana ko ayo masezerano ntacyo amaze.
Tariki 29 Werurwe, Perezida Habyarimana yagiye kuri Radiyo Rwanda, agaragaza ko umwanzi bamaze kumutsinda.
Ati 'Magingo aya, ku butaka bw'u Rwanda, nta mwanzi waduteye ukihabarizwa. Nongeye gusubira mu byo nabwiye abafashe intwaro maze bagatera u Rwanda, kandi nta cyo bizabagezaho, mbasaba kureka imirwano mu cyubahiro, nta cyo basize inyuma kandi nta rwango, maze bagashyira intwaro hasi, bagataha mu Rwanda nta cyo bishisha.'
Uwari Minisitiri w'Ububanyi n'Amahanga ari nawe wari uvuye gusinya amaserano ya N'sele, ageze i Kigali yabwiye RFI ko ibyo FPR yasabye byo kwirukana ingabo z'Abafaransa nta shingiro bifite.
Hagati ya taliki ya 6 n'iya 8 Kanama 1991, bwa mbere Leta y'u Rwanda na FPR zahuriye hamwe ngo zishyireho inkingi z'imishyikirano ya politiki bahuriyeho bombi. U Rwanda n'u Bufaransa byifuzaga ko u Bufaransa buba umuhuza. FPR yanze icyo cyifuzo kuko uretse ko n'u Bufaransa bwari bwarijanditse mu bibazo by'u Rwanda ariko ntiyanashakaga ko umuhuza aturuka mu bihugu by'abakoloni.
Perezida Mobutu na Perezida Nyerere nibo bemejwe nk'abahuza. Imishyikirano yatangiye neza i Arusha mu kwezi kwa Kamena 1992, iza kurangira tariki ya 4 Kanama 1993.
