World leaders are arriving in numbers to commemorate alongside President Paul Kagame this 30th anniversary of the genocide. The African continent is widely represented since at least seven heads of state and government have already arrived.

Former US President Bill Clinton, in office in 1994, will head the US delegation. No delegation is expected from Kinshasa, due to the very tense context with Kigali linked to the crisis in eastern DRC. The French Foreign Minister Stéphane Séjourné met his Rwandan counterpart Vincent Biruta this Saturday evening.
