The Belgians used the Tutsis
to run the country,

:13:03
Then when they left,
they left the power to the Hutus,

:13:05
and of course the Hutus
took revenge

:13:08
on the elite Tutsis
for years of repression,

:13:10
Am I telling the truth, Paul?
:13:12
Yes, unfortunately,
Please take this to the general,

:13:16
Benedict is our finest kournalist
in Kigali, an expert on the subkect,

:13:21
So what are you, Paul?
:13:24
I am Hutu,
:13:27
Gentlemen,
:13:28
- More champagne?
- More champagne would be nice,

:13:32
Excuse me, honey,
Can I ask you a personal question?

:13:35
- Are you a Hutu or a Tutsi?
- I am Tutsi,

:13:40
- And your friend? Tutsi?
- No, I am Hutu,

:13:46
They could be twins,
:13:48
Get the camera,
The general's going to give us an interview,

:13:51
Okay,
:13:53
I'm in room 22, I'd love
to finish up this conversation,

:14:00
Senior U.N. officers claim that
the Rwandan army is secretly training

:14:04
and arming the Hutu militia
called the Interhamwe.

:14:07
I put this claim to the head
of the armed forces, General Bizimungu.

:14:11
No. No, we have not been
training the militia.

:14:15
The U. N. are mistaken
in this accusation.

:14:17
Do you support your president's
agreement to make peace with the rebels?

:14:19
The president has
the full support of the army.

:14:23
That peace agreement will
be signed today in Tanzania

:14:26
between Tutsi rebel forces
and President Habyarimana.

:14:29
This is a great day for Rwanda
:14:32
and for all of Africa,
:14:34
Negotiation has replaced confrontation,,,
:14:36
Paul, have a drink,
:14:39
Friendship has replaced fear,
:14:41
Ladies and gentlemen,
we have a live feed

:14:43
to the signing
of the peace agreement,

:14:45
To our president,
May he find peace,

:14:49
May we all find peace,
:14:51
Let us all dedicate ourselves
to nurturing this hard-earned accord,

:14:56
To peace!
:14:58
Peace!
