Abstracts

In the period 1959-1962 the United Nations actively assisted Rwanda in the process of gaining independence. Their mutual relations continued after Rwanda became an independent country and were based on the UN providing economic support to Rwanda and Rwanda's representatives taking part in the UN's initiatives and statutory work. In the early 1990»s, after the outbreak of a civil war in Rwanda, the UN presided conciliatory actions. Those actions ended up in a failure, both moral - which resulted in a breakdown of the peace process in April 1994, and military - which resulted in a dramatic decision of withdrawing the UN forces from Rwanda in face of genocide ravaging the country. After 1994 the UN took part in humanitarian actions helping Rwandans to rebuilt their country.
