We have just heard of ChristianeTaubira’s resignation, Mr Valls’ minister of justice. At once, she was replaced by Mr Jean Jacques Uroas, very close to the prime minister, but totally unknown to us and the CPCR.
“Sometimes, Resist means Stay “ “sometimes , Resist is Leave”, she said in her tweet. Of course, nobody is surprised by this resignation considering the French political context.
Does the CPCR have to regret her? It’s hard to say but we probably lose the person who, among the French government , was the most sensible about the Tutsi genocide in Rwanda She came where the genocide took place and had shown her interest in the struggle we pursue , but she was part ot a government who seem to ignore that “the country of the one thousand hills”exists. The last “act of force” being not to send Mrs Taubira to the commemoration of the 20th anniversary of the Tutsi genocide in Rwanda in April 1994. At that time , we had denounced this decision, shameful for the socialist leaders of our country, not to mention the contempt in front of more than a million victims .
This resignation, of course, will not change anything. French justice will go on “hastening slowly” , organizing trials , now and then, trials that we keep on claiming for..The next trial , about Mr NGENZI AND Mr BARAHIRA, both suspected of taking part in the Tutsi genocide , will take place in Paris criminal court of justice beginning on MAY10. Then will follow Pascal SIMBIKANGWA’s trial appeal in October 2016, at Bobigny court of justice.
Through this report, we have the opportunity to remind you and all those who believe in Justice that we are facing a very hard financial problem, i.e :Pay our lawyers for those 2 trials. The CPCR who is at the beginning of the complaints is supported by other associations in this struggle .If you want to support and help us, please go to :
