UN document Reveals Rwanda Had French Mistral missiles

A french paper-Libération reports that the Rwandan army was in possession of 15 French Mistral missiles on the eve of the Rwandan genocide in 1994.

It cites a UN document which, it argues, raises questions about the role Paris played in Kigali in the years and months prior to the genocide.

Mystery surrounds the discovery of a UN document by a British journalist which reveals the presence of 15 French Mistral ground-to-air missiles in the Rwandan army arsenal in the build-up to the 1994 genocide.

At the time, the exportation of these missiles was strictly forbidden.
