“The strategy will include three areas: media, diplomatic, and political.
Those in North America are particularly targeted, since that is where physical elimination approaches present more risk to the Rwandan government, “ sources within the Rwandan Defense Forces who participated in the Rwandan national security meeting led by General Paul Kagame late last week, told Inyangenews Network.
A Wide Strategic Campaign Against Effective Opposition Leaders.General Paul Kagame convened the meeting of Rwandan nation security advisers after a long tour across the United States of America. During the tour, he met several of his closest Rwandan advisers living in the USA and in Canada, and the expatriates who serve on his Presidential council.

how we can design a comprehensive campaign to squash all opposed to the progress we have made. ” The security advisers, including top military and intelligence officers, examined a wide strategy against the opposition proposed by General Kagame, with a targeted media
campaign against opposition leaders in North America.
