The efficiency of a President at the beginning of his term depends on their capacity to get everything under control. That was my case. But once the institutions have been put in place, and the responsibilities delegated, the leader becomes a reference, a referee, a symbol and unifying figure for the nation. The issue is how and when to recognize the moment when staying in power becomes counterproductive.

The situation in Congo shows nothing for which you could hold Rwanda responsible.

Rwanda is not over needing aid, but we can survive with less aid than before.

Rwanda has its own problems and never sought to blame others or cause others trouble. I advise Burundi to do the same.

Infrastructure is key, but also how it's used, and that's political.

The West is anything but altruistic.
